So hows the look

Finally got around to starting my gallery witha few USAK kilt pics.

I tried one with Stewart Hunting and a Driza-Bone stockmans vest. What do you think, does it go or is it to long?? Love the Blackwatch, it is superb to wear, like going to dinner in a Mercedes

Cheers

I think they all look just great. It's always nice to see new faces

The vest is a good thing to have. It looks good for casual and it has pockets (Maybe). I think Graham uses one a lot

Rob,

What a splendid couple of shots

You look very natural, of course kilts are natural

Rob,

Great to put a kilt with the name!

You have 2 fine examples.
Excellent photos.

Ron,

That's a Buzz Kidder sporran. USA Kilts sells them too.

Thanks for the positive comments guys,its nice to know I am wearing them the right way. Yes the vest has a couple of nice deep pockets, great for carrying the extra's. I found the big black sporran on USAKs site and as you say it is huge, easily swallows wallet, keys, digital organiser and there is still room for more, really soft leather and well put together to.

Sorry for the late reply, I was away for a couple of days, you look great, the kilt looks very natural on you, like it's made for you.

I do like the Driza-Bone, never thought of that option!
Well done!

Rob,

I was enthusiatic about Ron's sporran comment that I forgot to tell you how I liked the outfit. I like the Blundstones in brown. I have a black pair that I wear often with a kilt, but the brown give another look.

Graham,

What is a Driza-Bone? I think that there must be a specific dictionary for Australian english. Actually, when we watch an Australian movie, I have to translate/interprete for my poor French wife.

Casey I will answer this one for Graham

Driza-Bone is a company that makes traditional stockmans clothing out of oilskin material. Everthing from long coats for riding horses to the vest I was wearing. I also have a heavy version of the vest that is lined in sheepskin fot the winter - very warm and still leaves your arms free for working.

See drizabone.com.au/ if you are interested.
