    I was showing it as an example of the lack of cultural acceptance in that time.
    More details, please. Were you portraying a Loyalist Highlander?

    Kinda', I guess. To be honest, I just wanted an excuse to wear it, since there are no more RenFaire's nearby. One of the girls asked me to wear for the "fashion show," so I did. The biggest thing I was showing was how our ancestors used everything they could as much as they could (the kilt also doubling as a blanket, etc.), and then it was described how I would have been arrested had I been seen buy a sheriff.

    Here is a picture of me in my traditional kilt.

    Forgive the missing sock and the poorly tied garter. I was attempting to get everything on while keeping my neon white dog off of me.



    It looks a little long, but according to everyone at the house, it hits mid-kneecap. The pleats aren't the best (hence the lack of picture), but I'm ordering a Frugal Corner box-pleat after payday.

    Any comments?

    Frugal Corner is offering Box pleats?

    That'd put a smile on my face.

    Yes. We can get kilts made to the Sett, Stripe, or Box pleated.
    That's pulled from FC's website (FAQ section). I talked to Mark, and it just falls under the custom price range...as well as the custom waiting period...(beginning pre-jones until payday).
