    Prince Charles Edward Stewart Kilt

    Here are some photos of the Prince Charles Edward Stewart kilt that I purchased on eBay recently. Wore it last night to an outdoor concert by the NC Symphony. Only one kilted in the audience but no comments.



    Has 27 pleats, 1 inch reveal and 2 3/4 inch pleat depth. Material weight feels like 13 oz. Very pleased with this one (# 8 in the kollection)

    Nice picture, thanks for sharing. I noticed how to hung your sporran off your belt there. That's pretty neat. Is that historically accurate or did you just adapt and create your own for personal preference?

    I will venture a guess and say that BEEDEE is using a pair of Cavscout sporran hangers. They are a great alternative to a strap or belt.

    Very nice looking kilt. I was considering the same tartan when I got the easier to find Black Stewart, it's on the list though. Congratulations on number 8.

    Some vendors sell them as an alternative to a separate kilt belt.

    Nice looking on you. Did you buy on of the standard kilts or did you have it taylored to your specs?

    This was put on eBay by forum member freddie. I lucked out as the measurements were just right for me.
