I'm really liking the color and fabric choice. How does the fabric feel, and what is it? Your front apron and buckle placement are rather unique, I'm loving it. And don't be so quick to discount your makeshift sporran, I really think its a nice looking addition. All in all...a really unique looking, and may I say uber manly, kilt. I love it.

Great first effort!!!

It looks GREAT, especially for your first attempt. I really like the attention to details on the straps and belt loops. Your stitching looks very straight.

Excellent job, amigo!

I agree...great fabric! I would also like to know what it is. Plus, the buckles just add to the look. Super job!

About the fabric:

Here in Honduras they call it "Gabardina" it supose to be Cotton-Polly, but my mother in law said its 100% Cotton.

Well, that explain we is so hard to keep the plaits.

Anyway, It feels great, very "freedomly".

Ironing box pleats is a hard job, for me at least (if you consider I dont Iron any other garment for wear it)
Im guessing if kinfe pleats are easier to iron?

Thanks for your comments.
