Anybody have a Isle of Skye or Weathered Scott kilt from USA Kilts?
I can't seem to decide between the two PV tartans. Does anybody have an Isle of Skye or Weathered Scott PV kilt from USA Kilts? I'd love to see a picture, see the tartan "full size".
Thanks!
K.

I own neither but to be honest I'd lean toward the Isle of Skye tartan. The Scott Weathered is a very fine tartan...but IOS is so stellar! It's up there with Holyrood, IMHO.

Actually, Holyrood is also on the short list of possible choices. I have seen pictures of that one in kilt form though.

I believe Riverkilt has a Weathered Scott, you may want to shoot him a PM.

Here is my husband in his Isle of Skye kilt, with the hose I made for him. It is indeed a beautiful tartan, especially for people whose complexions are complimented by cool colors.
Ruadh gu brath!

Here's my photobucket page for USA Kilts Isle of Skye in Casual. You can see is a smaller size tartan than the wool tartans. I have both, love the tartan so much. Wool for fancy. Casual for knockaround.

I have both in Casuals pleated to sett. They both are great looking. I laid them out side by side and can't pick over the other as best looking. I pick one over the other based on the clean shirts and hose I have that go with them.
The IOS is in greens and purples and the SW is in autumn shades of reds, browns, greys, and yellows with a bolder white stripe. The Scott Weathered does go with more other colors in my eyes. And the Isle of Skye is a more subdued look where I think some of my patterned shirts are less likely to create an "optical confusion" situation.

Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.
