My new Irish National kilt.
Here it is. I got it on eBay, from heritageofscotland-net.
It's about what I expected for what I paid. Very different from my tank, but it'll be fine for drinking Guinness on Kilt Night at McGirk's, for St. Patrick's Day and for summer excursions.
I wore it outside to get the mail today (18 degrees F, and windy) and noticed that it's much more susceptible to the wind than is my tank. :grin:
Anyway, here are the pics.

Looks pretty good! And not that flourescent green you see as the background on some of the Irish Nat'ls out there....

I agree, that is a much better green than you usually find on affordably priced kilts on eBay. Great purchase. And you wear it well.

Can I get a link to the auction that you won that on, or one similar? It is a nice looking kilt and you wear it well.

Nice kilt, and as was mentioned not that bright green as on some of the cheaper kilts. Enjoy it at the kilt night!

Kilt looks good, but I believe you are wearing your sporran a bit low. I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong. ;)

Here's what I got when I searched "Irish National" in the ebay store of the seller I got it from: http://search.stores.ebay.com/Kilts-...677483QQsofpZ0
Thanks for the nice comments, everyone.

Careful with that Heritage of Scotlad stuff. I just received this Dress Gordon in the mail today, and I'm not liking it. It's 65% Viscose Rayon and 35% Acetate Fiber. There's 20 pleats about 1¼" deep, and there's no "swish" at all - very stiff fabric. Oh well, you get what you pay for. I should've just waited to see what new Standards SW is going to come out with. I like the Nightstalker I just got for almost the same price (When S&H is included)
