Kilt Suit

[krooks]

I was at the Highland Games - Stone Mtn last weekend. Saw the 21 century kilt booth. The booth mgr.(?) was in a kilt suit - cream colored linen kilt and suit coat. Great looking - very expensive. Anyone have one? know of a less expensive option?

Check out Hamish's album for photos of several different kilt suits he owns. I believe many/most of them are from Twenty-First Century Kilts.

Union kilts sells kilt/waistcoat 'uniforms' that look very sharp. They're not suits per se, but you might like them.

I saw that guy last Saturday at Stone Mountain, It certainly was a different look.

Welcome to the forum, do you live around Atlanta?

One of the kiltmakers that was at the Celtic Fest in Chicago a few weeks ago was wearing a brown pinstripe (BIG YELLOW PINSTRIPES!) kilt suit and it looked really awful. I suppose that my taste runs toward the traditional formal kilt look...de gustibus non est disputandum!

That's right, Andrew. I have three TFCK kilt suits and there are photos of them in my album (link below).

The first (2000) was in bottle-green tweed. The next (2002) was a dark blue (not Navy) worsted suit, and the most recent (2003) is in a grey pinstripe worsted.

I wear these suits thesedays wherever, prior to foresaking trousers, I would have worn a business suit. For most of my working life I wore navy or grey pinstripe suits and I should have loved to have worn a kilt suit to work. Alas, I retired before Howie Nicholsby (TFCK) came up with the notion!

By the way, Howie has many photos of his kilt suits on his brand, spanking new website at www.21stcenturykilts.com

When I went to your photo album - only first 2 pics came up. I set up account. Still no change. Wonder why?

The first two pics are the 'entry' points to two sub-albums within the main one, Krooks. There has to be a reason why you saw those and not the remainder. However, you are not the first to experience the inability to view my main album (103 photos over 9 pages). It seems the problem could be your Firewall, assuming you have one. If you could disengage that whilst you look at the album, I think you might overcome the problem - others have!

My Album is hosted at the IMFF web forum, so I have no control over the technical side of things - which is just as well, as I am a total computer ignoramus!!

Very nice, but $900+ is a little steep.

If the Men's Warehouse carried kilt suits I'll bet more would be on the street.
