I did something similar in ordering a poorly sized basic original SportKilt (sizing was my fault – it’s a tad short). It wasn’t long before I was ordering a proper 8-yard wool kilt from USA Kilts (Rocky has a great deal on some of his X-rental stock). Initially I thought the SportKilt purchase was a mistake. Now I feel that it was an opportunity buy a kilt without spending hundreds of dollars as an experiment to see if I even liked wearing a kilt. In this case the experiment went well. My only regret is wishing I’d selected a different length. I made darn sure not to repeat that with my second kilt… Live and learn, right?

I should also say that both SportKilt and USA Kilts were very easy to work with and demonstrated top-notch customer service to a novice with many questions. I also have no issues with the quality of the garments. I knew what I was buying on both accounts and my expectations were exceeded. I’d be happy to purchase from either of them in the future, should my particular needs require it.

Enjoy your 5-yarder! I’m sure it will look, wear and feel great!
