    US Army "Light Tank"

    By Alexis Malcolm: my new US Army tartan, 16 oz. wool, hand-sewn kilt. Since it's only 5 yards, it's not quite a full-on "main battle tank", so I call it a "light tank!" I ordered it in June and received it yesterday. The hand-stitching and details are fantastic, and I heartily recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a domestic kilt-maker....

    Very sharp. That's a really attractive tartan. I've only seen it in swatches, so it's great to see a whole kilt.

    Hard to tell it's only 5 yards. Great looking kilt.
