    To my disbelief, 66.7 hours after ordering, my package was delivered.
    The fabric is fantastic! I'll definitely be purchasing from them again in the future.

    Thanks, Lochcarron!
    As a frequent sender from Scotland to the USA, I would say your experience is on the quick side of normal - three to five working days is the Royal Mail advised delay, and their partnership with USPS is efficient. US Customs is where the delays usually occur.

    Lochcarron cloth is excellent in every way - what did you order? Is it a kilt? Opting for wool instead of man-made is a decision you will never regret. Personally, I am puzzled by the popularity of synthetic materials, especially kiltings, when wool is superior in every way, including being environmentally sound and culturally authentic.

    You must keep us all updated with how your new purchase stands-up to being worn in action, as what you say is encouragement to everyone.
