    Thank you sir, and my lady.
    This will be my third one from Jerry. I have one of his Irish Nat'l, and a Irish Saffron, both SWK standards, I am very pleased with them and now the Black Stewart. This now makes for a total of seven for me, the other four are from Wolfstone Kilt Co. in Washington, VA. Two high end scottish wool and two wool blends. I don't know why I waited for so long to start wearing the kilts... I'm just glad I did.

    Cheers,

    Brian

    Scratchy,
    Well it seems that my color choices would be black, gray, maybe off white/cream, or a deep maroon, if I could find it. A diced white and gray may work also. Do you have any suggestions?
    I wear black, navy, or dark green with my Black Watch and matching BW flashes. I will also at times, try to match the hose and shirt and use the kilt to break up the colors. For example, black Highlander shirt, SWK Saffron kilt, brown belt w/ brass buckle, black hose, and brown boots. The ladies where I work love it when I come in kilted, I'm the only guy in my section.

    Cheers,

    Brian

    Let's just hope the wool is comfortable.

    I ordered a Stewart Black that has been sendt to me. Hopefully I wont have too much problems in customs. Good price for a wool kilt in 7-8 yards. Besides; it will feel a lot better going casual with my own tartan! Don't plan on wearing my best kilt when going out with the pipeband.

    Looks identical to the standard, but close to twice the weight. I wore it for just a little while around the apt-still have to take the basting stitches out. Nice touch that he includes a kilt hanger with the woolies.

    I have both black and oatmeal/natural hose; I've just been thinking the black hose might just be too much black. I'll have to ask me lass.
