Nightstalker Custom Pics and Review

I got up from my computer to let my pit bull out for a minute and I found a glorious package waiting for me on my front doorstep! I took it inside and placed it on the kitchen table for opening.

This is how my custom stillwater kilt arrived. I took it out of the bag and saw that it was in good shape save for a slight crease in the front. No biggy. I took some quick shots of the front and back after I put a Tudor rose pin in it.

The tartan is all black and grey. You can see that I custom ordered this one pleated to the stripe in the back, so the pattern is different there. I tend to get all my kilts this way if I can help it. I didn't know that SWK did custom kilts until I recently read the fine print at the bottom of the page for their standard kilts. I had really been needing a 23 inch long kilt.

And here I am wearing it with a sweater. As far as the kilt goes, I was quite satisfied with it. I think it must be hard to find pleat depth like this in this price range. I was wearing a military issue style McKenzie kilt just before I put this one on, which made the SWK standard seem lighter in comparison. But when I stepped outside I found it was the perfect weather for a SWK standard today. The fabric on the SWK standard is soft.

I enjoy this kilt a lot. I just thought I'd share some pictures and thoughts about this wonderful tartan.

Looking good Roan, I really like the dark side look.

Thanks a bunch, Grant.

I just saw that you're from Canada. It might amuse you to know that I was in the parking lot of an Ingles grocery store today here in Tennessee, and a Canadian lady stopped me to see if she could show me and my kilt to her sons. I think she felt it was an important part of her heritage as a Canadian.

It was fun. She probably wasn't expecting to see a kilt at the grocery store.

I was giving some thought of ordering one after seeing this great looking kilt,but when i checked out the site-it showed size 46 as the smallest size.
I wear a 36 so i guess thats out.

Looking good! I like the black sweater with the kilt look.
From one Carter to another, (a Canadian Carter at that!) wear in good health!!

My Nightstalker heavyweight is one of my two favorites for sure. It's a killer tartan- especially for us metalhead types! It looks great with my Iron Maiden hockey jersey, and my Argylle vest. You wear it well.
