I just took possession of my first 8 yard, hand sewn, made to measure, 16oz wool tank in the Isle of Skye tartan. My kiltmaker perfers to remain nameless to maintain their "amateur" status but I'll give you a hint - they're a member of this board...

This kilt is amazing - it fits like a glove. The hang and swing are well... impossible to describe. Now - I think - I finally understand what the big deal is about a handsewn wool tank. I own 2 SWK standards and one (soon to be two) USAK Semi-Traditionals and they are all great kilts. I consider each of them to be excellent value for the money - but oh my... this tank is a wonderful thing.

I know I'm gushing but I just can't help it - color me VERY happy
