Just got a Stillwater Standard in black today ... my second kilt. (First is one my wife made in a MacDonald of Sleat tartan.) I like it! I got a great price (bought it on eBay), got it quick and it looks cool, especially when I go all monochrome with it. (Black shirt, black hose, black boots, black balmoral with a black toorie.) Quite nice - I would definitely recommend for a first kilt - or even a second .
