    Talking County Cavan kilt from Edgar

    Okay, for those of you who may be curious: I ordered this Irish County Cavan kilt (5-yard casual) on April 16th; I received it today around 2:00 pm via DHL (needed to sign for it, of course). That's only 33 days from payment to delivery, and there were no unexpected duties, etc. Needless to say, I am very impressed with The House of Edgar/Tartankilts.com...and now, a few pics:

    Front of apron (a bit blurry):



    Pleats (to sett, obviously):



    Close-up of belt buckles (very nice):



    Tartan flashes (front):



    Tartan flashes..look, no velcro! (back)



    Edgar label #1:



    Edgar label #2:



    I hope no one minds but I thought I'd take these pics before I put on the kilt for the day; I'm sure there's some of you who don't own an Edgar kilt (yet) so I posted these pics in the hope that they give you a better idea of the quality of Edgar kilts. I'll try to add some 'modeling' pics later on tonight. Hope you like the photos.

    There's one exciting bit I forgot to mention...well, it's exciting to me at least:

    The Fitzsimmons material (and kilt) I have on order from Edgar (due 7/21/06) will contain the same dark green, light brown, dark brown and black that you see here in the County Cavan kilt. After seeing these in person now rather than looking at the tartan/yarn samples I have, I really can't wait 'til my other kilt gets here...it's going to be absolutely beautiful!

    Hey MacSimoin

    We both ordered Cavan county 5 yard kilts from Tartankilts on the same day - and they were both delivered on the same day - unfortunately, I was not home - so I won't see mine till Monday. After seeing your photos - I can't wait!

    That's right, I nearly forgot! Believe me, you're going to love your new Cavan kilt!
