    Caledonia Tartan in USA Kilts Semi-trad

    Just back from a great weekend. Picked up some pics of the new kilts. Others follow.

    Hope this is helpful...one of the hardest things for me to find when making a kilt decision is a photo of the tartan I want made up into a kilt.

    The pleats are a little rugged in these pics since before the photos I'd driven five hours wearing the kilt and there was a bit of a breeze about.







    Location is on Mingus Mountain, Arizona above Jerome. Was there for a 12 Step Retreat with friends.

    Wonderful pics Ron, of a great looking tartan, hope you had an enlightening time at the retreat.

    Nice. Ive been wanting a kilt in this tartan for some time now. I just won 2 email lotteries today, one for a cool million euros, the other for 700,000 euros. I think as soon as I get my checks I'm going to put a rush order in to Rocky for semi-trads in the Caledonia here, the American heritage, and also the Anderson tartans (my moms clan) As well as a couple solid color wool kilts with matching argyles and vests. Those things are way slick!

    Are you serious??? That's over $3 million!!!! For that kind of money, you could fly first class to Scotland for a couple of weeks for a handmade outfit.
