Shepherd's maud / plaid

[Keith Gainham]

Fur quite a wee while noo ahv been interestit oan gettin a maud. Eftur a lot o haird wurk an savin ah finally managed tae git enough tae git yin. Noo, here's the hing - ye cannae just go buy yin o these nooadays - yev goat tae source yin, 'cause they dinnae mak these oanymair, unless yer lucky enough tae fin yin oan Ebay or unless yer gettin yin weaved specially. Ah wis lucky enough tae source yin fae Matt at New Highland who'd goat a few fae D.C. Dalgleish in Selkirk. Just shows ye how rare these urr - ah hud tae send tae America fur sumthin that wis made in ma ain country!

Oanyway, lang story shoart - here's pics o ma beloved maud an a couple o masel wi ma cromach wearin the beautiful gairment itsel. Bless yees an yer clans bruthurs!


(For quite a while now I've been interested in aquiring a shepherd's maud. After a lot of hard work and saving I finally managed to aquire enough money to buy one. Now, here's the thing - you can't just go and buy one of these nowadays - you have to source one from Ebay or get one weaved on request because they aren't made anymore. I was lucky enough to source one from Matt at New Highland who'd got a few from D.C. Dalgleish in Selkirk (Scotland). To show you how rare these are I had to send to America for something that was made in my own country!

Anyway, to cut a long story short - here are photos of my beloved shepherd's maud and a couple of myself with my scottish shepherd's crook (cromach) wearing the beautiful garment itself. Bless you and your families brothers)

All of the members from Alabama that are drooling over this post, I say go for it now before the stock is all gone. Bear Bryant would be so proud that you stepped out in style. So, If Keith will be so kind as to share a link for purchase, it will be appreciated.
