    Tartan: Fleming (STA #2531)
    Weight: 16oz
    Yardage: 8yrd
    Customization: Knife pleat to the gold stripe, 2 straps with silver buckles
    Why: It's my family tartan (GGGrandmother is a Fleming), it's an unusual tartan, and it looks absolutely amazing in person.

    Now I have to save up the grand it'll cost to have it made and shipped from Scotland.

    My first kilt was and remains my dream kilt:

    NYC Tartan
    16 oz. wool
    handsewn in Scotland

    I am a fourth generation New Yorker and consider this to be my district tartan par excellence.

    This is a hard one - part of me would respond to just say - "My next kilt"

    But to take it a step forward - When I absolutely want to look and feel at my best, right now, I will pick my beloved Leatherneck or my almost equally beloved Hudson Bay.

    The choice is hard: Both kilts are hand made masterpieces. The Leatherneck was made in Scotland, and the Hudson Bay was made by our own ChattanCat.
