    Stewart Navy USAK Casual

    Here is the other kilt I got when Rocky ran his sale earlier this year. It is the Stewart Navy tartan, and probably the only stewart I would ever wear, as the others are just too bright (except maybe black Stewart). Anyway, I do not think it is that bright, but when my wife saw me this morning, she said "You sure are bright today! Or maybe just festive!". It pairs perfectly with the XMarks t-shirt.

    I love that tartan, so... subdued.

    and the kilt looks fantastic.

    Smart looking kilt, goes well with the X-marks T-shirt.
    You must have almost as many kilts as Hamish.

    Rob, I don't believe I have seen that tartan made up before and Rocky has made another superb job of doing so. Now I have another 'want' to add to my list, as that is the only Stewart tartan I could bring myself to wear.

    Unfortunately, it is not listed on the USAK website so I guess I've missed the boat - somehow I missed his 'Sale'!

    It may just be the photo but the pleating looks kinda sparse?

    For the "Almighty Hamish", we can get that tartan again.

    McClef... our Casual models have 1.25 to 1.5" wide pleats. In this case, I believe (if memory serves) they were about 1.44 or 1.5" wide. There's 2 pleats in the striped section of the tartan and 2 in the "navy section". For a SEMI TRAD in the same tartan, we'd probably make 6 pleats (about .9 or 1" wide) per sett.

    I say! Steady on, Rocky!

    That's brilliant - I'll be in touch within a few days.
