Hi Bubba, leading question: what did you do to that kilt to wear it out? I know by now where pants wear out but where does a kilt wear out? I am amazed, how long did it take you to wear out that kilt?
Anyway, it surprises me that a guy with your talent and experience would even think about buying a kilt! Couldn't you just make one which is around 1" shorter? - Longforgan
