    My new 8-yard Fitzsimmons kilt from Tartankilts.com!!

    It's finally here!!! (part I)

    This is my very first 8-yard traditional, in the earthy Fitzsimmons tartan, from Tartankilts.com (House of Edgar). The colors are a tiny bit off in most of the pics except the very last one (next post) which is fairly accurate. And now, the pics:

    Still in the box:



    The MacNaughton Holdings (owners of HOE) tag on inside of apron:



    Two pair of flashes:



    Front apron



    In the above photo you can still see the tack, which I haven't taken out yet. See next post for more pics.

    Pleated to stripe, my personal preference:

    Close-up of the pleats:



    Close-up of the tartan fabric (colors are fairly accurate here):



    Well, that's all the pics for now. I ordered this kilt specifically for my upcoming wedding but believe me, I will do some 'posing' this weekend and will post pics over at the Kilted photo Gallery (maybe a pic or two here as well). Thanks!

    Very nice. I've been eyeing a few of the earthier toned kilts lately myself. Enjoy.
