    I go through phases of what kilts / tartans I like the most...

    I curently own 38 kilts. Over the years, I've probably owned 70 or so. As I get bored of a particular tartan or color, I sell it. That's (partially) how I fund my kilt wearing... sell old ones to raise money for new ones!

    My favorites RIGHT NOW (winter months) are my 8 yard Buchanan Weathered (16 oz) and my 8 yard Law Enforcement Officers Memorial (16 oz).

    In the summer months, I prefer my lighter weight kilts... Cameron of Erracht Muted 5 yard wool (16 oz) or my 8 yard German Heritage (13 oz) kilt.

    I also wear a few contemporary kilts during summer months while working outside or if the shop is closed and I'm working in back (3 UK's, 2 FK's and 1 RKilt).

    Bottom line... it really depends on mood.

    My favorite kilt from another maker? My hand sewn Isle of Skye. It was made for me by a maker in Scotland who we use when customers ask for a Hand Sewn kilt. The craftsmanship is superb and the tartan (Isle of Skye) is very handsome.

    Kelly's favorite kilt is her Firefighter's Memorial (wonder why )

    interesting.

    is there a specific kilt for which you have an extraordinary personal attachment to, in perhaps the same way one would for a kilt made in their family tartan?
