    Colm,

    Not trying to be antagonistic here, but why do you like a hemmed kilt? In my mind the pleats would not be as sharp and the bottom edge of the kilt would be twice as bulky. Additionally, the kilt would look as if it had been made for someone else and had been altered to fit a shorter man, instead of being custom-made for you.

    As far as the matching fly plaid, I encourage you to consider purchasing a matching bias-cut waistcoat instead!

    Cordially,

    David

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
