    Just received my first kilt!

    I just went out to get the mail and to my surprise, there was a large package from Stillwater kilts in there. I ordered one of there standard models in the Nightstalker tartan and it looks great. It is hanging up in the bathroom right now letting the shower steam out the wrinkles from packaging. As soon as my wife gets home with the camera, I will take a few pics for you guys.

    I am saving up for my next kilt now. It will be a made to measure, 8 yard tank in Lamont modern. Not sure who to have make it yet, but that is something to worry about later.

    You've made a good start. I have a SWK in that tartan and like it a lot.

    Congrats on the new kilt! but.... pictures!!!

    One bit of advice, there are a TON of wonderful kilt makers here on XMTS. Take your time to figure out what it is you want in a tank. For the money, it's worth getting it exactly how you want it. I wouldn't look outside those within this forum to find a kilt maker for a hand-sewn tank...just my 2 cents.

    But, seriously, I am stoked to see those pictures so hurry up and post them!!

    I admired the Nightstalker on SWK's site. Can't wait to see pics of you wearing it! Congrats on your new kilt.
    For me, there is nothing in this world that holds the same fascinating appeal as watching the backside of well kilted man...

    Nice looking kilt. And it appears to fit you well. I like that Clan Lamont shirt with it. I have a similar shirt for my clan - Douglas. Thanks for posting the pics.
