| | | New USAKilts Buccleuch Casual Kilt
Another one of Kelly's kilts. Pleated to the stripe. Rocky had warned me that the sett was smaller than most, it is, but I like it. Believe the Buccleuch has something to do with the Scott's (still learning the history) and the Scotts are a strong maternal clan of mine. 
Off to work. At least 100 degrees F today. 
Kelly's pleatwork is so fine it almost looks like I have the kilt on backwards. 
One thing I really like about the USA Kilts casuals is there is PLENTY of pleat swing.

another nice kilt, Ron. I also like the outfit with the greens and the brown sporran. It looks sharp.  Cheers

Way to go Ron. You look so natural kilted, a true example to us all.

Ron, that looks gorgeous! And I know USAK's work is excellent, but how about a closer look at the tartan? I love more earthier tones, but I can't really make out the colors, the sun is very bright in the photos.
Oh, and nice hip action big boy!

Well, ain't trying to catch Ham, just trying to medicate my own kilt addiction. Think I'm a ways back in the pack anyway...know there are more on the board with more kilts than I.
Even if someone wound up owning more kilts than Ham it wouldn't mean anything. Ham is so cool.
These USA Kilt casuals sure are the answer for the hot weather in my part of the world.

Great looking kilt Ron. You make me jealous!
