For sale a true vintage Thomas Gordon & Sons kilt. Heavy wool, 16 oz approx. I believe the tartan is Scott Red. 36 inch waist. Being a true vintage piece made by a military supplier, the kilt was...

I would totally avoid the taller moccasin looking boots you have on the second link. They are really specific and only seem right for Renaissance fairs or reenactment. A way too limited in wearing...

We did a lot of driving vacations when I was a kid. Like from Colorado to Texas to Alaska and back! So hit a lot of states and provinces in that time. Too bad it doesn't include Mexico, because I've...

I like it with eggs for breakfast. I was eating it in restaurants and hotels in Scotland when I became acquainted with the "chieftain o' the pudding-race". So I have no idea what brand I was eating....

Ah but choices, choices...aren't they a grand thing to have. I especially like 19thC silver buckle and the fern design. Nice looks on both, mate!

Was the kilt an ex-hire? My IOS was and needed to have the canvas and lining replaced. In the process of doing that, noticed that there wasn't a stabilizer either. Took about a day to do the work,...

These are my traditional belts and buckles. The round buckle is from MacDonald Sporrans (great people to do business with) and the rectangular one is Clan Art. Both belts are leather with velcro...

If you have a Garmin, go on Amazon and get the UK map chip. It saved our butts more than once on a 3 week driving trip in the UK. If you have the post code for your destination even better. It...

Welcome, from La Mesa. I don't know of any kilt nights in SD per se. Basically most of my kilt nights are of my own making, at the Globe or LJP or just about and around. Like tonight at a friend's...

On the question of the cat...well I'm sorry, I don't have the time to answer it because there are an infinite number of monkeys outside who want to discuss the script of "Hamlet" they've worked out.*...

"Pa...pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa!
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa!
P-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-pa,
P-p-p-p-Papagena!"

Papageno, one of my dream roles. Regrettably my voice is not big (or good) enough.

Very much depends on the tartan. Most of my kilts are pleated to the sett, but largely because I have purchased them as-is and not because I custom ordered them that way. My one bespoke kilt is to...

I purchased a belt, buckle and hose from BuyaKilt.com (MacDonald Sporrans) for my partner to go with the kilt I made him for Christmas. He was dressing for a recent event and was putting his kilt...

And back to the Opera...who played Figaro?

Back to the opera:

Gordontaos, I did have good seats that night, but it was MANY years ago and things were a lot more affordable then. Opera tix were priced such that even a lad in his twenties,...

So one of their PV models? Is the tartan Black Stewart? Congrats.

A what a magical place. And they do a great Figaro. When I saw it there many years ago the moon was setting through the open back of the stage during the final scheme in the garden.

This got me thinking, so had to run to my closet and see which kilts had loops and which didn't. Note, I didn't say "sporran" or "belt", just loops. Out of 5 kilts only two have loops: my first tank,...

Interesting...I just obtained 2 yards of double wide tartan at a bargain price on eBay. (can't beat 13.00 and still has the tag from the UK sale) i think it is saxony rather than worsted but has the...

Hi all you tartan wiz's out there. I am curious regarding family names, and ultimately tartans associated with the Ramsay Clan. I have a nice Ramsay Red modern and a length of yardage in Ramsay blue...

I have seen a lot of kilts marketed as "Hamilton Grey" and as I was working on my first kilt in a grey/black tartan, kind of assumed it was the aforementioned. When I did a search in one of the...
