    Jonesing, first "tank", and a question

    Ordered my first "tank", an 8 yard, 16 oz Black Stewart from our own SkyeHighlandOutfitters in Sacramento, CA:
    http://www.skyehighlandoutfitters.co...s_Welcome.html

    Ordered it last week, supposed to take about another 5 weeks or so, not bad!
    .
    Question: do any of you Black Stewart wearers use BROWN leathers (belt, shoes, sporran) w this tartan for day wear? Not sure if it "works" w this tartan or not.

    I'll plan to post pic's when I recieve the kilt!

    I tend to only wear my Black Stewart when travelling because it is light, but when I do, I only wear black leathers.

    Regards

    I wear my Balck Stewart kilt to church and almost always wear brown leathers (belt, sporran, shoes) with it unless I know that I will be going out in the evening, then I wear black or I take a change of leathers with me.

    I hope this answers your question.
