    How I wear my SWK Irish Saffron (picture FINALLY)

    I've been meaning to get a snap of this get-up up here. I wear my Irish Saffron like this usually. The hose (oatmeal from USAK) actually match the color of the jumper a lot better than the flash of my camera made them seem. That cap is the Irish tweed, patch, flat, cap from www.orvis.com.



    OH, and that kilt pin is the Erlenmeyer flask "Occupational Kilt Pin" that Blacksmith so generously forged for me from brass. Thanks again Blacksmith! We tried to get a better shot of it, but my flash was play heck on it. Here's the original thread.

    That outfit looks comfortable. Very good look for you. The flask pin is cool too. O'Neille

    The outfit look smashing Bradley. That kilt pin is great - One day I will try making something similar.

    I like the look. Are those Driving Moccasins? Definitely an outfit for comfort.

    This is a very comfortable wear. Here are the shoes I'm wearing in the picture.

    I, like Panache, must start investing in the oatmeal hose. I think the colour is more "manly" than white.

    If this is the men's department, where are the kilts?
