New Naval Tartan sport kilt
I got my new kilt, t-shirt, and sporran from Sport Kilt today. I also got a kilt pin, but It doesn't stay on so I'll have to wait and fix it before I take a picture.

Looks Good! I'm a big fan of the Navy tartan.
Cheers

Congratulations on the new kilt, it looks good.

Is that because of style or service history? Just curious. It's both for me (my maternal great-grandfather served in the Navy in WWI, my grand uncles in WWII, my uncle in Vietnam, my mom's cousins and my dad during the Cold War, plus I plan on going through NROTC and becoming a Naval Aviator, but I would still have bought that kilt even if all of them had been Marines  )

Nice looking kilt. First time I've seen one - kinda resembles the US Army version.

I purchased an SK Navy tartan kilt because my Dad served on destroyers in WW2. But having gotten it it has become my favorite every day kilt. IMHO it's a beautiful tartan.

First, I think it's a handsome tartan with all that blue.
Second, I believe all all my Grandmother's brothers served in the Navy in World War II.
I'm not sure I would wear that tartan myself, but if I was going to wear one of the armed services tartans it would be the Navy.
