    Well Cloves, not a word to Skipper1, but I posted the pinstripe pics just for you!

    Take care,

    Oh dear! Ham is getting his fans all worked up again!

    The staff shall have to have words with him, we are running out of smelling salts...



    Wonderful kilt suits Ham!

    Cheers

    Wonderful photos Ham thanks for posting them all together, although I fear Jamie might be right the smelling salts are running low.

    While impressed with Hamish's suits (I particularly like suits 4 and 5, myself) -

    FYI, if anyone is interested in owning the suit pictured here, we are selling the display model:
    http://giftshop.scottishtartans.org/glen_tilt.htm

    The jacket is 44R, the kilt is a 36" waist and 24" length.
    I'm more interested in this, since it's my size.
    Matt - is this the suit with the Argyle jacket?

    I do want one. I know that I could not do it justice like Ham does.

    Hamish,

    How well do the 11 oz. and 12 oz. kilts hold pleats and resist wrinkling?

    I am interested since I recently got some nice 11 oz. tartan but am reluctant to have a kilt made of it, since some say only the heavier weights are worth it.

    Hamish, where did you get the brown leather sporran in those pics? It looks cool dude, I want one myself. The last TFCK pic is the best, looking sharp bro.

    I am a fan of corduroy with small or fine wales. I think that might make an attractive kilt suit if corduroy can be used to make a good knife pleated kilt.

    I don't even have a traditional kilt yet, so that is all dreaming...

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
