Greetings from Shreveport in NW Louisiana!

Got my first kilt at age 16 (I'm 53 now!) from Geoffrey (Tailor) in Cunningham tartan. I was young and thought I had to play the "Clan Tartan" game! No such restrictions on me now though!

My second was also made by Geoffrey. About 15 years ago I was at the Stone Mountain games near Atlanta, GA and Geoffrey had purchased a lot of gubmint surplus tartan (Black Watch) which just happened to be what I was looking for anyway. It's coarser than commercial fabric but very heavy and durable and it still looks great! Got it for $350!

My third was a lucky find on eBay: a great kilt (also by Geoffrey) in Modern Hunting MacFarlane. Not a tartan that I would've chosen but I've grown quite fond of the bright colors (see avatar). It was rarely if ever used and I stole it for $200 along with hose, flashies, day sporran and a bunch of other stuff that I don't really need.

I came across this forum while doing research for my next kilt. I'm looking for something more casual that rides a bit lower, about where trousers hang but that'll be the subject of another post.

Hey, y'all from catfish country!
