    The Jonesing has begun!!

    Yesterday I officially ordered my first traditional kilt!

    It'll be a 16oz Ancient Macbeth, made by Barb T

    Besides being my first trad, this'll be the kilt I wear at my wedding. I'm also getting enough material to make a plaid.

    Excited? Why yes. Yes I am. :mrgreen:

    Oh no, he moved on to the hard stuff!

    Congrats on your first traditional. After you get it, you will probably find that you want many more. There's nothing quite like the feel of strapping on a traditional.

    Just start your kilt fund now. There's no getting away from it.

    Oh what a momentous time in your life when you order your first traditional, and for such an event too. CONGRATULATIONS Nick.

    I can echo this one...I was the neo-traditional moderist kilt guy for a while...put on a blackwatch tartan kilt from Stillwater and I went out and bought four more different tartans...I'm in so much trouble with my list....I had better find a job that will let me be kilted all the time....maybe I'll just go back to bartending....
