    My First New Kilts

    I recently purchased my first new kilts; two SWK kilts (a Thrifty in the Irish National Tartan and a black Economy), one SK kilt (Works in U.S. Army tartan), one Black Watch kilt outfit from an English distributor.

    Some of these kilts and my traditional (used) MacNaughton are being altered (Thanks for the great advice I received from a number of you). I am ready to get them and make my first outing in a kilt. I'll let you know how it goes.

    By the way....my wife loves them

    I'll take a few pictures when I get them back.

    You sir, are home free if your wife likes you in kilts. Congratulations.

    Too bad you missed the recent special run of USA Kilts Army tartan. Got me one in the semi-traditional style and just wore it to work this last week.

    Know it ain't your Army kilt, but might help the photo jones for some.
