I paid $300 for the kilt and international shipping so I'm asking for a "best offer" and I'll ship anywhere in the USA at no cost to you.

Measurements:
Height = 176 cm
Waist = 88 cm
Breech = 104 cm
** The basting stitches were in until a few nights ago. I returned from work and my lovely bride had taken them out, saying, "Let's see you in this properly before you sell it." I then reminded her that it didn't really matter since it didn't fit me properly anyway. **

Jonathan
Bumped! With a busy academic calendar, I had neglected a bump! Oops! I'm happy to answer questions. I'm hoping to go to Ireland for July and if I manage to sell this kilt, perhaps I'll simply buy another one from the same shop in Antrim that's more suitable (I'm 5 ft 8 in tall and this kilt would fit best someone who is approx. 5 ft 9in or 10 in tall).
