    New from Northern California

    Hello all,

    I've been interested in kilts off and on for years. Due to the price, and not sure which tartan to get (I'm a Ross paternally but can trace back to Robert the Bruce maternally, and also have military and fraternal ties), I never got around to buying one until last year. My first kilt was the 5.11 tactical duty kilt. I got it wore it and loved it.

    I can't wear a kilt with my full time job, and the 5.11 TDK is a bit short for me (I'm 6'4"), but I do wear it on occasion. I'm also still looking for another better fitting kilt, but again too many decisions and too little money.

    I was doing a search today to see if 5.11 had another April Fools ad, and ended up looking into kilts too. It's a slow day at work.

    So here I am.
