I have 2 of Steve's contemporary kilts (1 tiger stripe and 1 tan) and they both fit very well. If you're looking for a truly CUSTOM solid kilt with pockets, I wouldn't hesitate to send anyone to Steve and the staff at FK.
Keep up the great work, Steve!

Take care,

If Hamish gets a "Pink Death" camo before me, I'll have to fly over the pond and do some serious personal damage to him! 
We'll wait our turn.
Be well,

Well deserved recognition, especially for all the other things he does for us, like the XMTS Cap Badge and runs of XMTS tartan.

I have beaten one of Steves' kilts to death and it take the beating in stride, and I have two more kilts on order. Because of the extremely high quality and the awesome personality found in the shop I'm happy to drop by whenever I can and, much to my wifes shagrin always leave with something in hand. Lucky for me she loves the look of the kilt!

Keep up the great work, Steve!
And THIS is one of the things I love most about this board: while Rocky and Steve are both kilt makers and competitors (and, in this instance, have slots one and two in the sponsor bar above this posting), they're both gentlemen. No badmouthing (which is, unfortunately, what we've come to expect these days). Nobody would blame Rocky in this instance even if he kept quiet. But he actively came out and said good things about a competitor.
I've already rewarded Rocky for his behaviour (He'll hopefully be shipping a grey Thompson semitrad to me any day now). Now, I just need to get something from Steve.
My wife's gonna quit letting me have the keys to the checkbook.

Congratulations Steve. I've not order a kilt from Freedom yet, but Steve has been more than helpful in our XMarks Clan Badges and during my several phone calls to his shop.

Send me your sizes.Or better yet, PM me and I'll send you the measuring instructions.
Um, I've had to put almost all of my plans for new kilt and jacket on hold for a while... Sorry about that Wizard, but others might take note of this.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
