I love it! when you move around the pleats are dancing...it's heavy, but not stiff. The wool is soft and feels comfortable.
Was also happy about the size...I took my own measurements...23" long, waist "34, seat "40...it seems I made no mistakes.
I admit it...I spend over an hour in front of the mirror...moving, turning...even jumping :grin:
And...took a stroll outside. All turned their head, but not a single word.
I feel confident!
Tomorrow...a belated Christmas dinner...PC time!
More kilts...less p@#%s!

Very nice, Robin!
On a side note, what's the tartan in your avatar?

Very nice, Robin!
btw, your room is looking a bit stark. Must've spent all the money on the kilt instead of furniture, eh? 
Quick question, too: How did you order the kilt? I went to the Lochcarron web site, and I disn't see any info on ordering kilts.

Very nice, Robin. Congratulations on the purchase that will last at least a lifetime, if it's well cared-for. I'm a HUGE fan of Lochcarron kilts, having three of them in various tartans and weights.

Thank you all...thank you!

The Isle of Skye tartan...I ordered kilt nr.2 before I got nr.1

Err...well...it's between the living room and the dining room...design furniture is my wife's hobby. With a "less is more" idea behind it (very good because design furniture is filthy expensive :grin: )

Lochcarron has no online shop...must find a retailer who can order a kilt by them. My 1st was ordered online by Highland traveller/Scottisch Touch, nr.2 I ordered by a local piper who runs a small shop.

Maybe send Lochcarron an email and ask for a retailer list?

Robin,
That is one very fine kilt. Although I don't have a Lochcarron-made kilt, I know their fabrics well and had every faith that their kiltmaking would live up to your hopes and expectations. It is a truly spectacular tartan and one that I believe I could be happy wearing too...........;) ;)
