Without further ado
IT WAS MA KILT!
So here is the unveiling of my grandma tailored Cunningham tank .
Unwrapping like a kid in a candy store!




the test fit


Yes, I realize I am in pants in the first couple of pics. . . . . Anyway, this post wont get farther than the test fit for a while because well, it didnt fit. That being said, the only issue is the placement of the buckles. Grandma though she had made a booboo and that the kilts were going to be a bit to big so she moved the buckles toward the center several pleats. She actually was right the first time. No big deal though. Rather than send it back and have her fix it, I am going to take it to a local tailor to reposition those buckles. Ok, all that said this thing ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It feels great to wear. I have never had a custom tailored garment before and it fits like a dream. It is a bit long, but I think that is from my bum measuring in the first place. I think it will be fine at this height, but if I grow a smidge it will be dead on. Anway, I could go on raving and raving about how great it is all day. Those of you with tanks custom tanks understand what I mean. Anyway, what do you all think?
