It does look like the black shadow tartan from stillwater. Very nice indeed.

There's not much about the similarities though, just a single mention by bjcustard that it's the same.

I agree, it does look like the one from SWK. I still don't know if I could wear it though. From a distance it doesn't look "kilty' enough for me. Sure it's awesome up close but who is going to get close enough to me to tell that it is actually black-on-black rather than a solid black skirt?

Regardless of where it comes from, I really like the looks of it!

I wonder if lighting and movement will make it apparent that it is black on black instead of just black .

That is hot. I want one. Now. lol
Ok someday, preferably soon. I guess I know what kilt number 3 or 4 will be. Hopefully before my friend gets married. I want to wear a kilt, and all the men in the wedding party will be wearing black suits, black shirts and burgundy ties. I was trying to figure out a tartan that would look good with burgundy. Problem solved. But without the poofy shirt.

Many of us will have our own personal threshold of acceptability where kilt design is concerned. Tartan kilts are obviously "safer" to wear than plain because of the association with Scotland and its proud traditions. But to be sure, a solid color does not make a kilt less "kilty".

Even those of us with solid color kilts though, still have a threshold of acceptability where certain colors are concerned. The black on black and navy on navy are a wonderful transition between the solid and the tartan... and a real confidence booster - for those that need it.
