    I like the original that Steve had run at F&K, but I also like this new run. There is enough difference between them to make them enough different that one could have both in the closet!

    There are many of us newbies jonesing for another run of X-Marks tartan. I too have thought of commissioning a run, but felt it better to wait and add my name to a list to see if the price would be better for many more of us.

    That's very interesting... I do like the brighter colors. But, first thoughts are "I'm glad I have the darker version in someone's queue for a kilt "

    Man Brad, you certainly bring it home don't you! I wonder who the said xmarker is that is also jonesing for this kilt?

    I actually prefer the darker one. It does look different and enough so that you could indeed get away with having both in your wardrobe. Congrats to the jonesing xmarker, they have something unique (for the time being!).

    I kind of like the original lighter version, but the "redesigned" darker version is very appealing too. Might have to put them both on the wish list. To be considered a weathered, ancient, modern version does the tartan have to have the exact same sequencing?
