    On the subject of box pleat kiltmakers, does Matt Newsome make solid color box pleat kilts or just tartan/tweed ones? If not does anyone? I know you can make an x kilt yourself but does anyone make them commercially for those of us that are sewing challeged?

    I have no doubt Matt would be more than happy to make you a box pleated kilt from a solid color, worsted wool, 13 oz. or heavier. Some of the mills offer a few solids in woolen cloth.
