And so it begins...

I went to Kiltmart in Phoenix today and bought my first kilt. I decided to get the hand sewn Pride of Scottland. I also purchased a belt and buckle and a sporran.

My initial thoughts on the kilt is that the sewing quality is good and the weight is good. I am not all that impressed with the leather straps, but for the money, I can't complain. I guess they can always be replaced.

It will be interesting to hear any comments I get when I wear it grocery shopping tomorrow.

Now that you've bought your first beware of the addiction!
Congrats.

Congrats. Be sure and post a picture soon and start saving up. I'd say most everyone here has bought their first kilt but no one has bought their last...
Slainte!
