What leads you to think that there was some other method preceding the belt?

Workin on a bottle of Aberlour 12 myself. Very nice.

It's a matter of perspective. From my point of view, centric isn't all it's cracked up to be. Scientifically, it's no more than an infinitesimal point on a bell curve.

There is a strange, sad and ugly irony here which some evidently fail to grasp.

I agree wholeheartedly that the legality issue is minor in comparison to the far weightier matters of decorum, good taste and respect.
I seriously doubt that Jock would be arrested, (much less...

Apologies and due respect, Mr. Robertson, but your post contains quite a bit of misinformation.
The current owners of many coats of arms, especially pertaining to Scottish clans, are indeed alive...

If a person is going to buy only one kilt, especially a quality kilt with the inherent expense, the time and research required to find the right tartan is a wise investment.

The first part of Tartan for Me contains instructions for using the book. It is virtually useless unless one reads and understands these instructions. The author clearly points out the pitfalls in...

In the midwest US it varies considerably. Some furnish tents, tables and chairs; most include parking pass(es) and tickets. Prices from $25-$100.

It was Dalmore 12 to toast darlin' Rabbie. Rich, complex, mouth-filling and satisfying.

Nicely done, Richard.
Are you planning on making Bridgeport again this year?

If, on the other hand, 43-46% ABV is sufficient, I can heartily recommend several relatively inexpensive but fine tasting drams...
Aberlour 12, Balvenie Doublewood 12, Cragganmore 12, Dalmore 12,...

Send me your blazon and $100 and I will be happy to register your arms.

As has been said already, there are several clan Chiefs (including my own) who use the boar's head as the crest of their arms and as the main symbol of their badges. Most of the illustrations of the...

Dalwhinnie 15 is smooth as a baby's bottom. Dalmore 12 is robust but not at all harsh. MacAllan 12 is in the same ballpark and very pleasant. Highland Park 12 has a bit more peat without being...

Phil brings up a good point. In the US there is some protection from ridicule afforded by strict adherence to TCHD. It provides a solid cultural context for one's attire. Other kilt wearers and...

It would seem to me that if your Chief's acknowledgement is your goal, then a conversation with him would be the place to start.

I would suggest that you contact Lochcarron directly. They can answer your question easily and authoritatively.

You are correct. A clan and a clan association are normally two different entities, although in most cases there is a relationship between the two. The MacPhersons may be an exception. However, a...

You shouldn't judge a book by its cover. There is a connection to be sure - the Campbells and MacTavishes have been neighbors for well over a thousand years. However the "sept claim" is another...

Alternating between Dalwhinnie 15 and Dalmore 12. Variety is the spice of life. :)

Not very ingenious or dramatic, I'm afraid. My name, my mug shot and my office in my clan association.

Congratulations to the Cunninghams! My own clan was "chiefless" for around 200 years so I can relate.

I have worn mine with a white dress shirt and long tie on several evening, dressy but not formal, occasions. I also wore it last year to a ceremony where my nephew was decorated for valor. It seemed...

A well-deserved honor. Congratulations and thank you, Derek.
