    A couple of WPG Gordon Kilt Pictures

    Here are a couple of pictures of my WPG Kilt, I'll save the review for after the holidays. For a production made kilt I'm very pleased indeed, I will say that the straps need to be replaced.

    It was a cold and damp day so I was wearing for warmth and very casual, like always (I dress very casual).

    Nice pictures, congratulations again.
    Makes me wish I hadn't blown the buget Christmas shopping, ah well a week or so won't hurt. The pleats look great BTW.

    I have one just like it. It's a great kilt. The straps suck, alright.

    Unhappy

    What options does one in dealing with the poor quality of the straps? I'm been wanting to find a REALLY heavy kilt for the winter weather we get here, but I'm not one of you handy types.

    Buy one and replace the straps. That's no big deal, but the kilt is a real bargain, especially if you wear one in the cold. I almost guarantee you won't be cold. (I hesitate to actually guarantee since some folks are cold natured, and I'm not.)

    You can still wear it with the straps that come with it--I still do--but I hate them and curse them, their designers, their makers, and all the forebears of the whole group!

    But that is one killer of a kilt for about 300 bucks.
