    See USAKilts Semi Traditional Kilts for a long answer. In short machine sewn in Poly Viscose material with 3-buckles and knife pleats, though I believe USAKilts will do box pleats if asked.

    The Black Watch RHR of Canada wears a polished brass colored buckle with a green web for every day wear and a white belt for dress occasions
    a black belt with a brass buckle should look just spiffy with your new kilt.
    Remember the history of the tartan that you are wearing and wear it proudly.

    The "Semi Traditional Kilt" is a term that we coined in 2005 for our model that was nicer and looked more traditional than our Casual kilt, but still made in PV cloth (not "traditional" wool material). As far as I know, we're the only kiltmaker to use that term for one of our models.

    As 2 small points of clarification, we always use (and have never run out of) silver buckles on our kilts unless the customer provides his / her own brass buckles and we only make knife pleated kilts... not box.

    Not a problem. I try to correct any small mistakes about USAK up here to keep everyone well informed.

    ...and "Rocky" is fine... no need for the "Mr. Roeger" formality. I'm just 'one of the guys' up here.

    Kelly is a goddess in her own right and IMHO the males here would enjoy more pictures of the goddess of USAKilts showing off of the your products.

    Would you wear a brown belt with a Blackwatch kilt or is better to stay with a black belt?

    The Black Watch tartan is also clan tartan, so wear black or brown as you want. Unless you are planing to do military re-enactment with it, treat the tartan as a clan tartan. Don't overthink the matchy matchy thing. As an example, all day sporrans of the highland regiments are brown
