    Someone Looking for a Hodden Grey Kilt?

    Just listed on ebay UK Hodden Grey Kilt ex London Scottish
    Label says waist 33 and breech 40, length 27 starting at GBP69.99

    Know there was a thread about same very recently but can't find it.

    Don't know how to put link in but I searched under "Scottish Military"

    A bit slim for me, but someone may want it

    I think it may have been Josh.

    To post the link, I just highlight the web page info (http//www.......) Go to Edit and click Copy then when I get to my post here click Paste. Shazam! it's there

    More computer savy people may have a quicker way, but that works for me.

    Hope that helps.

    My heart leaped when I saw this thread. Back in the 70s when I was in my 20s, I used to check the offerings at the big surplus store, Hercules, on Yonge St. in Toronto. One day I found, up on the discount floor, a table covered in the strangest kilts. They were a kind of browny, heathery, grey, and they were $25 each. I had no idea what they were, but loved the look of them. Though I was an adventurous dresser, I couldn't justify spending sooo much on a whim, so I didn't even try to find my size. I learned years later that they were Hodden Grey kilts from the Toronto Scottish, and may have been from the disbanding of their boys' unit. I tell myself that none of them would probably have fit me anyway.

    But, I have long had this idea that someday one will fall into my life, and thought today might be the day. But nope, the one on ebay won't fit. A couple of inches too tight, and a couple of inches too long. Drats. It's fun to have an old dream rekindled, though.

    It's my size but I can't afford it right now.

    I have the know how to repair it and everything but I am afraid 99 pounds plus 30 shipping is too much.
