    Hopefully a pic that shows the U.S.Army tartan colors well

    Been trying to get my USA Kilts semi-traditional Army tartan kilt in the sun where the tartan colors show well...just maybe I finally did it.

    Wore it to the local Memorial Day services then, since it was so sunny decided to give it a shot. Hope it works on your monitor.



    Was windy out by Glen Canyon, as you can tell from my hair, so those are pleats in the wind, not rumpled ones.

    Looks great, Ron! I'm digging the red garter ties with it.

    That is nice Ron, like TB says the red ties look sweet with that outfit.

    Looking really smart, Ron. A beautiful kilt in beautiful scenery.

    Great shot, Ron - how long did you mess with the garter ties this time trying to get the frays to stay "dressed right?"
