My first kilt...but not my last




Taken last spring. ZDF German public television was filming a special on my Dragon Boat team--Gung Haggis Fat Choy--and my first kilt happened to arrive the day before, so they asked me to put it on. Not only my first kilt, but my first time wearing it! A 4 yd wool Hunting Mackinnon.

Very Nice looking in your new Kilt. You should push the belt straps next to the buckle on both sides to close the turn. Welcome to the addiction
