    First kilt arrived this week!

    I'm very excited to say my kilt arrived on Monday! Here is a picture of it on just out of the box (with a few accessories hastily thrown on as well). Please excuse the sloppy belt, wrong socks, etc. I pulled it out of the box and was too excited to not just throw it on right there. I went with the 5 yard 16 oz wool and I'm impressed with how light and comfortable it is. Trying it out for the full day today. Quite chuffed.

    As a side, I had a friend over Monday and she works in the fashion industry and has a degree in designing garments. She was looking it over and was very impressed with the quality of workmanship. Not that I had any doubts but its always nice to know the quality exceeds expectations.

    Thanks Rocky! Looking forward to doing business with you again!

    You're not the first (or will be the last) to open the box, squeal like a child, don the new kilt (regardless of other clothes) and want to show it off. It is the only way to relieve the nerve wracking wait for the package to arrive.

    By the way, the smile says it all.

    The nefarious effect is you enjoy wearing it, so you do so regularly, then you start thinking, "damn, I need to get another one so I don't over-wear this one." I imagine a number of the gentlemen on this board evolved into having closets with more kilts than trousers... something to look forward to.

    You must have been listening to the conversation I had with my wife last night!
