Bunker Kilts

I'm in a pipe band with my retired Battalion Chief and as a retirement gift we all chipped in to buy him a black bunker kilt. It was cool at first, but than the cool factor kind-of died off and now it's just something he wears in a mass-band parade. Most bands want you wearing some kind of tartan, not something that looks kind-of gimmicky....just my opinion though. They ain't cheap either...better to spend your money on the FF memorial tartan...something you can wear anywhere. Again...my opinion.

I love my FF Memorial tartan kilt. Its a beautiful tartan even when folks don't realize what it is...and its nice that I know.

Or just get one of each...
