    They are perfect if you ever find yourself in snow like this:

    You will not likely be unhappy with your purchases. I have a Gordon like McMurdo's, and it's a great kilt in the winter. Besides that, WPG is a great supplier and a fast shipper.

    And, yes, a jones is a jones is a . . . .

    Man Mcmurdo I dont have anywhere near that snow. Here IN sunny South Carolina, we get snow about once every decade if the weather patterns hold.

    But it does get a bit windy. I plan on dressing this up a little with a jacket that is getting modded as we speak. Its to be my nice kilt for the winter. As i am still unsure of my Scottish history , or lack there of. I am waiting to either buy a tartan kilt when i get the facts sorted out, or a nice tweed kilt, in the event i find out i am only Scottish in my heart

    The other plans i have for this is a Military Re-enactment this Nov.
    The kilt is not period correct, but its the best i can do, and still get wear out of it.
