A Sport Kilt Dilema

[eighties]

Nope, no loaner kilt, at least not in my size. I'm one of about 3 or 4 that have to wear a different tartan. A total of maybe 7 or 8 of us will actually need to get the kilts when they do the next mass order. I believe that they do actually get them from a Canadian kilt maker.

Here are a couple other things to ponder.

-The lighter fabric may be a blessing during the South Carolina summer months.
-The elastic waist band may allow for it to be a loaner kilt to another new band member until they get their tank.

Just some more fuel for the fire.

sounds like the decision has already been made. I have yet to see a reason not to get the kilt posted.

For about the same price, actually a little less, you could get a USAK casual in PV, and the velcro on the casuals allow a similar size flexibility. Just not sure if Rocky can get the NS tartan.

I had to post because Eighties mentions needing the Nova Scotia tartan I have this in stock and the Maple Leaf in PV PM me if you want details about my kilts.

I'm a huge fan of SportKilt .... get the kilt as an interim, then you'll have one to wear to those wild piper parties once you get the more expensive, hotter official kilt that you can't spill beer on.

SportKilt is wash and wear, so get it dirty, man!!

Kilt On!

this man is a genious! you should heed his words!

Sportkilts look bad enough on their own. When you put it next to the genuine article, that the pipe band will be wearing, the difference will be appalling.

Just an opinion. You DID ask.

Aw, shucks, KiltedKT, you said it better in two posts earlier than mine. I just said it shorter and funner (now there's a smart word fer ye).

Like'em or not, SportKilts remain the most practical kilt for the money as long as you define practical as working and playing outdoors in conditions that might destroy your kilt without wrecking your wallet.

I'm about to go out to my dump truck and head off to yet another construction site to load and haul-off the shocking amount of waste that is there waiting for me ... I think I'll do this job in Stuart Royal!!

Oh, hell, wait a minute ... I just remember I got paint and grease on it last week. Hum, Peggy machine washed it for me (damn, she even ironed it, GO PEGGY) ... wow, paint and grease are gone, tartan is just as brilliant in color as it was a dozen washings back.

I've just put it on .... ohhhhhh, baby, it feels just as comfortable as when it was brand new, just love that stretchy waist (I've lost a few pounds). Better check the mirror just to make sure .... yep .... yeeeppppp ....

... Oh, YEA, I look freakin' GREAT!!

Kilt On!!!
