    My New Celtic Nations Kilt

    Finally got a somewhat decent picture of my new Celtic Nations kilt. I really love the colors and the quality of this kilt. Thanks Rocky and the USA Kilts team!

    Very nice. I assume the picture is reversed or did you order a skirt?

    I don't think the photo is reversed, but it does appear that the kilt is pulled too far to the right, so that the apron is not centred on the body. This is why we can't see the fringe on the apron. I have a Celtic Nations tartan kilt and there are three vertical yellow lines on the apron, as in this photo. The middle one should be centred on the body. It looks as though, in this photo, the space between the middle vertical line and the leftmost one has been used to centre the kilt, judging by the position of the sporran. Consequently, the whole thing is too far to the right and looks off. Otherwise, that's a very smart outfit.

    Correct... the white stripe is what is centered on the apron, so that's what should be in line with the buttons on the vest.

    Very nice Chuck! I'm in Mount Carmel, so very close to you and have a Leatherneck tartan kilt on order with USA Kilts. Hope to have the pleasure of meeting in the future. Maybe at local Highland games later this year.

    Yes, this was a very quick outfit change at a photo shoot and I should have taken more time to see that all was good.

    Looking forward to meeting you adambogel. I'm just down the road in Johnson City.

    Nice outfit. I think I like that tartan more every time I see it. Since you and Adam are so close, maybe you both could kilt up and meet in Boring;
    maybe liven the place up a bit.

    Looking good as usual, Chuck! I've had a semi-traditional in Celtic Nations from Rocky for a few years now; it's definitely most worn beside my Douglas Modern 5-yarder, and I believe you may've actually seen me in it before!

    Great looking kilt and outfit, slightly biased as that is the look I aspire to in the future.
