    Itried not to. I held off for as long as I could...really

    OK...

    I'm not sure if this is some form of acquisitional therapy, or if I've just lusted after this kilt long enough.

    I waited...
    I kept popping over to the website to check it out...
    Looking at pictures of it...
    Thinking, yeah--that will be the next one...when I need a new one...
    I waited some more...

    And then--BAMMM. Just made sense. Pulled the trigger and just ordered a new Stillwater Standard in Black Stewart!!!!

    Now, since I ordered it 7 1/2 minutes ago...does this mean that with Jerry's well known space/time contiuum converter that my new kilt actually arrived YESTERDAY?? The mind wanders.

    I have a Stillwater Standard Black Stewart from SWK and like it a lot.
    You'll enjoy yours!

    Yes, it did. You've already worn it, posted pictures of it and said you wished you'd done it sooner!

    I normally only wear a MacLaren, Navy Edzell or Irish National--tartans I feel I have a connection to. My wife reminded me of a family connection we have to Stewarts (albeit, Appin Stewarts or Stewarts from Balquhidder) and got me in a Stewart Royal--but there's always been something I liked about the Stewart Black. It's got that nice dark background and I think it makes the stripes 'pop' a bit. Something I can see wearing while bashing about in combat boots or in the colder temps with a commando sweater.

    For the price, service and quality--I LOVE SWKs.

    I'm off to check my closet to see if its already there

    Weekends do NOT exist in Jerry's space-time continuum. The kilt is was there 10 minutes before he ordered it.
