That is one great looking kilt. You wear it well. Very well.
I'd write to your kilt maker and get the matching flashes too

Very smart looking kilt. The problem you mention with the belt loops isn't noticeable in the photo.

Phil,
First and foremost, fantastic pics. You look great as usual, and I'm so happy that you finally got your Cavan kilt.
Second, I have to agree with every single one of your "likes" and "dislikes". The belt loop thing is a puzzler...how hard is it to center them?
Third, allow me to add another minor complaint: Although I am very pleased with this kilt and the whole buying experience, I did originally request that my kilt be pleated-to-stripe (which is just my personal preference). I was informed that since there's only 5 yards of material to work with, the pleating would be at the discretion of the kilt maker. Funny thing is, I've got other kilts that are less than 8 yards and they're pleated-to-stripe. So, why can't Edgar's kilt makers do the same? Is it actually harder to do?
Anyway, I'm glad you got your kilt, Phil. You wear it well. Thanks for the pics! 
PS Just reinstalled Coppermine, so click the "My Kilt Pics" link under my signature to see more kilt pics...not much there since I just started uploading today.

HoE kilts...
Hey, guys, I've noticed similar things about my MacKenzie tartan kilt that I got in late 2002. The belt loops are off a bit, but since I wear my belt over them, it's not visible. The kilt was ordered pleated to stripe, but, it seems like whoever did the pleating tried to pleat to the stripe and didn't get it exactly right. Looks a little like a compressed version of a normal pleated-to-sett kilt. They had enough material, so that's not a problem. 9 yards is enough. It's ok with me, but my next kilt will probably be done locally by North Channel Kilts, just like my first one was. Worth the extra $200.00, IMHO. I did have issues with the straps coming loose, but the owner of North Channel Kilts fixed those issues himself at no charge.
