    "Kilt length: 27""

    Yikes, that IS a long kilt! I'm just thinking that I'm 5'-7" and wear a 22" length kilt. Proportioning it up to 27" length, that would be sized for a 6'-10" man.

    If he states he spent $900 on this thing, I'm betting the reserve is pretty high.

    Wait a minute, though. I may be confused on what I'm seeing in the pics, but it almost looks like this kilt has the fringe and double-buckles on the left side, not the right. Does it look backwards to anyone else, or am I just seeing it folded back over? That, coupled with the long length, makes me wonder if this is not a woman's kilted skirt.

    I'm also having some trouble with the "Stewart morning" designation...

    ...perhaps he means Stewart Mourning? Which begs the question: why wear a mourning tartan to your wedding?

    27 inches...even assuming a 3 inch rise...that's pretty long.

    Well he states that the wedding didn't happen, so perhaps he was mourning his single life and the soon to be wife decided to ablige him..

    Well then he was askin' for it!

    When my cousin's wedding fell through, he took the money and went to Sweden for a month.

    Close, I'm 6'7" and mine is 28". Too bad I have a bit more, uh-hum, girth. The price is fantastic and I really like the tartan!

    If one could grab it at the right price it could be made "right". Unfortunately, too small girth for me. Even if I lost a lot of weight, I've not been a 38'' since high school.....
