    From 0-5 kilts in one summer, go me...

    ...or I need an intervention. ;)


    It's like they're jeans!

    I don't believe that these are yours. I demand pics of you wearing them.

    I agree! Or Better yet, just send them to me so I can know that you would have previously owned them.

    Been there done that----after ordering and recieving my first kilt in, what else, Forrester Modern nearly 4 years ago in preparation for my first trip to Scotland, I fell in love with wearing the darn thing so much that I ordered in rapid succession three more in the next three months---Black Isle, Ancient MacDonald, and Isle of Skye, and recieved them all in time to take them with me to wear in Scotland 9 out of the 10 days we were there. In the 3 yrs 4 months since that trip I have ordered and recieved another 14 kilts and have tartan waiting for three more, when I can finance the kiltmaking thereof. When you go, go big. Dive in head first. The water is fine.

    I went from a Sportkilt that I've had since the company first opened, but gave away in March, to a SWK in Black Stewart that I also gave away in March, to my current flock of my SWK Black Watch, TWO Caledonia's in PV (USAK and SHO), and today I should receive my Davidson Semi-Trad.

    Musical Kilts.
    Have fun and throw far. In that order, too. - o1d_dude

    JEFF: and is your collection entirely 16 oz. worsted wool? Wow. That sounds nice. I love my wool kilts but have a few modern kilts as well.

    I love my wool as well, the heavier the better in my book. 12 of my kilts are 15-16 oz wool, including 3 custom weaves, all 8 yd except one 6yd casual. 5 of my kilts are 12-13 oz, all 8yd, 1 custom weave. I also have one 8yd "heavyweight" PV off the peg that I hardly ever wear, and sometimes wonder why I even keep it around, but think that maybe I will start hiking or kayaking in it one of these days. I have two more sections of tartan, one 16oz and one 18oz waiting to go under Bonnie's needle in the hopefully not too distant future. Although I have my reservations about putting an 18 oz Black watch kilt in the same closet as my MacDonald of Glencoe Muted, I remain eager to feel the heft of a tank in regimental weight and see the swish the extra body brings to the kilt.

    Sorry for the temporary threadjack. We now return to your regulalry scheduled programming.

    @Forrester- I think you get the (enabling) intervention instead of me.
    WOW! 18! Impressive!


    Thanks for your kind remarks gentleman *blushes* and not going Kilt Kop on my non-trad garb.
