    Got a new Newsome box pleated kilt (teaser pics incl.)

    I just received my first 4yd. box pleated kilt made by Matt Newsome. It's an ancient hunting Rose tartan pleated to the double white stripe. I probably don't have to tell anyone what impeccable quality Matt's kilts are. I am now a complete convert to the 4yd. kilt. I love my 8yd. tank but my new box pleat is hands down the more comfortable kilt. I'm proud to count myself amongst the happy owners of a Matt Newsome box pleated kilt. I haven't had time to take any pics of me wearing the kilt, but here are a couple teaser shots of the kilt on it's own. I'll try to get a better review along with better pics up in the next few days.

    Wonderful job. This I like and not because I'm one closer to getting my Newsome. But I am.

    How does one go about aquiring a Newsome? They look fantastic! Does he have a site? I've heard him talked about a lot on this board, but I don't know how to contact the guy! The kilt looks killer, by the way.

    Here is his personal website, and he is a member of the forum.

    I wonder who's next to get their kilt? Matt wouldn't tell us, as I'm sure he thinks it bad for business.......... You or me?

    What, you're in on this as well? I need a new wool kilt, the mercury is hovering around 0°C. Like you need yours now in Cali!
