That was actually a typo it is 57yrs old as is the sporran that came with it, I am wearing the sporran now actually. If it is a quality piece it can last forever. BTW furrycelt it's a Gunn Modern and I wear it often, for a long time it was my only kilt. Right now though I am having it taken out slightly as it does not quite fit anymore. Here is my Dad and I, the first and second owners of this wonderful garment.



It was made by A&J Scott and co. Aberdeen, 1950, I was given the kilt about 3 yrs ago because I was looking for a kilt to wear to a function at work, so when Dad lent it to me I asked if I could keep it, he said yes as he would never fit into it again, his suspiscion is that it shrunk at the dry cleaners
