    New kilt, tartan ID needed

    After months of searching, I finally managed to find myself a wool kilt for a reasonable price. And not only a kilt, but also a prince charlie jacket and waistcoast, full dress sporran and a nice, heavy kilt pin. All this for £65 + £20 for shipping. All things are used and not in perfect condition, but for that price, definitely good enough for me! The jacket and waistcoast are a bit big for me, but I'll see if something can be done about it. I can always sell them, if nothing else.
    Can someone identify the tartan for me?

    Here's the whole outfit

    Sporran



    and me wearing all this

    Congratulations. You made one heck of a good deal. I'm not sure on the tartan. A tailor should be able to fit the jacket and waistcoat fairly easily.

    The kilt looks good on you.
