    Thumbs up Economy Wool Kilts

    Jerry I don't know how you did it. I've had it for less than two months but every time I wear it I love my Black Watch wool economy kilt more. I know it is missing some of the traditional internal structure and the straps could be heftier, but dang this is a great kilt for the money. I'm sorry I didn't pull the trigger when the Leatherneck was in my size. I hope you get a chance to produce more of these in other tartans. Thanks for a great offering.

    Thanks for the review. I've been considering one of these as my first.

    Ive two of these BlackWatch kilts, one for camping etc and the other for nicer (pub or visiting friends). They are great kilts for the price and wool to boot. Below is a review I did and some photos of the kilt in action (hiking, camping, sitting around a campfire)

    Yep I bough the Black Watch wool economy for my first. Just like New World Czech, I'm missing a few pieces that keep my wife from letting me go far. I have to say I'm glad I started with wool it has a feel and gives an idea what a kilt should that I might not have appreciated if I started with a Utilikilt or another kilt-like garment.

    Jerry's got me hooked, thanks.

    I got the USMC and I love it. My only complaint is so few choices. Two solid color kilts, Saffron and Black Shadow, Black watch and Black Stewart. I’ll bet if he could add some more tartans they would sell like crazy.
