    New Angus Harvey Kilt

    Well here it is, I picked up my new Angus Harvey 5 yard casual in the Navy SeaBee Tartan today. Boy what a great kilt, Here are a few pic's.



    Apron up close,


    Pleats,


    My lame attempt at a Hamish,


    I can't believe the difference in fit from a made to measure kilt and an off the rack one, it's like night and day.

    While I was at his shop I ordered one of his hand made 8 yard dress kilts in the Limerick tartan. So I guess I'll be jonesing again for another couple of months.

    That is an extremely delicious tartan, Keith and the box pleats are looking good.

    As for the 'Hamish' : perhaps a little more practice would not come amiss!!!

    Nice tartan! Angus does nice work, I have one of his off the peg.

    And I really like the belt as well. Where did you get that?

    I agree completely. Once you have a made-to-measure it's hard to think of off-the-peg again. Great kilt CB. Let us know how it does in the MI weather.
