    New Leather Kilt

    Just got my new leather kilt sent over from Leather Maniacs (over in Germany) worked out at about £100, planning to wear it this weekend on my London trip as well as my 8 yrd Pride of Ireland, the leather for day wear and the Pride for the evening, I'll post some pics next week.

    You're gonna love it.

    Have acquired three leather kilts to date - one brown Utilikilt and a saffron and a green RKilt.

    They are SOOOOOO addicting. NEVER EVER write off for leather swatches - they're intoxicating and lead to ordering yet another leather kilt.

    Do watch your leather kilt in heavy winds - leather makes a perfect sail.

    Graham: Unfortunately until you post pics, this kilt does not exist.
    Please post pics, particularly as this is a vendor I have not seen previous postings about.

    RON: I don't own one of Robert's leather kilts (have a hemp one) and because of the yardage I don't feel I have a light weight kilt, even though the hemp is 11 or 12 oz. (??). I am not really too worried other than for heavy wind.

    I would think leather would be heavier and therefore better in wind for not "sailing" as juxtaposed to say a Sportkilt. Are you just joking with your comment or is leather in wind tend to fly?

    Thanks

    Seanachie,
    I came across them by accident (Googling leather kilts) they do mainly fetish wear, the one I've got is Utility style with pockets, soft nappa leather, but unlined ( may have a go at lining it some time), they also do a longer drop to mid calf, if it wears well this weekend I may have to buy the long one as well

    I think you can get them through Ebay as well. Hell, you can get most thing through Ebay

    Photos will be posted, I know the rules, NO PHOTO= NEVER HAPPENED
