Muted Black Watch Tartan Kilt?

If you do a Search you will find a military box pleated kilt in this tartan made by John Hart (Keltoi) it has been several months but I do remember the posting, there were pics included.

I've made plenty of kilts from Lochcarron's 16 oz Black Watch weathered. All I could find uploaded in terms of photos was this detail pic of a four yard box pleated kilt.

You'll probably get more favourable comments about a muted tartan or people asking about it than any other kilt you have. That has been my experience with my Weathered Gordon, which is very similar to Black Watch.

Mine is Lochcarron strome, pleated to sett.

I much prefer the weathered Black Watch to the "normal" colours. A great choice if you go with it.

My experience [along with my first name

] coincides with John's. I have a Douglas Repro (New House Highland) and a MacKellar Weathered (Burnett's & Struth). I get more compliments/questions/comments while wearing these kilts than all my other kilts combined.

Maybe it's because I wear them both at the same time.

PS: Those are some handsome kilts and tartans, gentlemen.

I love the BW weathered tartan. That's on my "to do" list.

Wow!! Thank you, EVERYONE!!

Guys, your kilts all look outstanding!
Rocky and Matt, thank you for sharing.

I am still mulling over tartans but this one is really jumping out at me. Not flashy but kind of quiet and strong. I really dig all of the photos that have been shared. Very impressive!

Thank you, again!!

:-D

I have a USAK ancient Campbell. The "weathered" Campbell or BW was added to my short list after I saw it on this site. May have been englishblokes pics herehttp://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...ilt-bob-72333/.
