Need help and/or advice

Granite, it's beautiful.
I hate calling the Saltire faddish or novelty but the granite will work for more situations.
Granite is my second next choice for my own kilt goals.

Definetly the granite. :grin:

As much as I'm attracted to the Saltire, I know I'd wear the Granite more, and in more places.

Bryan...Happy Anniversary!...

Congratulations to you both of making your 20th Anniversary. Well done!

As for your choice: I'd agree with those ahead of me - The Highland Granite is a beautiful tartan which can be worn formally or informally. The Saltire, on the other hand, whilst holding a slight attraction for me, is something of a 'novelty' tartan. I have seen it being worn and it is truly effective when those pleats are swinging, but I still see it as a 'fun' kilt and not one to be taken seriously.

well i agree with most of that the non bolded section! anyone got a link to the granite?

Have you guys seen the saltire kilt in person? It is truely awesome--too awesome to be a mere fad, I think. The effect of the swishing pleats is mesmerizing. You can't go wrong with either kilt, but the price of the saltire one might be a deterrent.

Saltire.

Well, I've seen the Saltire worn in a formal setting (Scottish wedding in Luss) and I think it'll be around for a long time to come. Just take a look at what's flying from nearly every Scottish flagpole....Not a Union Flag in sight!

All kidding aside, I've already voted on this issue. I have a highland granite tank on order with our own Barb T!

(trying to wait patiently....and failing......)
