    My first kilt!

    Alright, I know this isn't the best picture but I was just too excited to wait. This is my first kilt straight out of the box!

    If I wasn't concerned about modesty I would be jumping for joy

    (and sorry about the mess, I just moved)

    Congratulations on the kilt.

    The hose however, leave a little bit to be desired.

    There may be others, as the years pass. But your first will always have a special place. . .

    He's in Santa Cruz and must be a surfer! Probably left the flip flops by the door. Congrats on the new kilt.

    At first glance, yes, but if you look more carefully, he is holding a (relatively nice looking) camera, and you can see the seam in the sliding door mirror.

    Also, it looks like he may have some difficulty carrying around daily necessities (like keys, cell phone, cash...)

    Looks perfectly fine. Nice kilt. 5yd? 8yd? wool? we love details.

    Just move the kilt round so the two vertical lines in the tartan are central and maybe a bit higher so more knee is showing.

    A mirror shot always looks odd as do the off white hose and brogues Joking.

    Lets have more pics in full dress please

    Chris.
