    As I posted in the original thread I received my Argyll kilt yesterday and it's too long as well. (I'm detecting a pattern here...) How / Where does one go about getting a kilt shortened?

    Rather than shortening my RRS kilt, I'm thinking maybe I could use this explanation of why it's long... the kilt, that is...

    Real nice looking kilt red. I'm sure you wear your kilts out all the time, but now we have another reason to get kilted here soon. (Well as soon as you get the fix taken care of that is) I fear it's going to be at least 6 months before I will have the money to invest in a new kilt. I've been dieing for a top quality kilt for a long time. None of the 3 kilts I own are top dollar, just off the wall cheapies. Shoot me an PM once you finalize everything and we'll start planning another night out, even if it's just you and me. It'll probably have to wait until after the Highlands stuff coming up though, i've been saving my money for the trip. Anyways, i'm rambling, Cheers!

    old scottish proverb
    if the kilt is above the knee your a boy
    if it's at the knee your a man
    if it's below the knee, your a liar
