    MacDonald MOD kilt

    I've actually had this one for almost a year, but it didn't fit before now (size on eBay was a little off.
    But thanks to three months of enforced exercise (running three dogs several times a day) - it almost fits now (two more inches to go ).

    Anyway, MacDonald military kilt, 22 oz, military "high-rise" waist, military box pleats.




    And I know, I'm doing the "extreme casual" look in these photos. I had just got home from work and wanted to see how well it fit right off.
    I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

    How timely, considering my thread about kilts w/ a "military high rise"
    Looks great!

    Now you just need to grow an inch or two in the legs, Gary.

    The kilt did seem to be a bit long (skirtlike, even ) in the last shot, but not in the other two. Could it just be the way it falls?

    Nice looking kilt. It should keep you warm in the winter.
