    Looks nice.

    I am still trying to understand sett, box pleating & the like. When I finally get a tank I want to be able to tell them what I want with out sounding silly.

    Looks great. I had considered that tartan but was a bit worried about that much color! This is making me reconsider.

    Thanks for the pics.

    I've worn my Warrior tartan with gray only so far. It does look sharp with black.

    Had thought about getting some purple hose but that seems way too much...especially with a purple shirt...and if the purple shades were off...yikes!!

    Other option is white hose and shirt or sweater...still pretty bright.

    Just not an easy tartan to work with, but it sure is powerful, especially in the sunlight when the purple leaps out.

    Thats a great Tartan. The black hose works great with it. I have a hard time imagining a different colour of hose looking good with this tartan. Awesome pictures.
