They Finally made it! BlackWatch Kilts are in!

here is an up-close of the pleats. The kilt is pleated to the stripe, and looks pretty good.

I know, the sporran is a little off-center. Besides that, the kilt fits well, and is well made (by my standards, anyway). I am sure I'll get plenty of use out of it.

Here it the back of the new kilt. The pleats are almost deep enough to hide my entire hand. Pretty good job, if you ask me.

overall, I'm happy with the kilts. I've got one out of the bags and wearable. I'm going to get some dinner, see how it likes the real world. I am sure it is very tired of being sewn up in a plastic bag.

I would almost classify these as tanks...but since they are machine sewn and not 100% wool, I don't have a decent term for them (e-tanks, maybe?). Body armor seems pretty close, though.

Outstanding pics. The kilt(s) look great. Thanks for all the posts.

Are the 4 kilts you received all the same tartan? They all looked the same. All these pictures of wool kilts makes me want one, but oh so many colors and what company to buy from? I don't have the money now anyway, and I think I will wait until winter. Jonesing already, and I can't even order one yet.

DALE.

Yes, they are all blackwatch. While I really like the look about a great many tartans, something inside me feels a bit odd wearing one that I can't associate with. I'll prolly only every have these blackwatches, and a bunch of different MAcTavish / Thompson tartans.
