    I was there last Summer I purchased my jacket from them. It's a real touch of olde world charm that shop. It felt like entering a time warp...An expensive one, but fun none the less...Just thought I'd share...I love Inverness and the surrounding area....
    Oh to keep on topic I have 1 hand sewn 8yarder and 2 Machine sewn 8 yarders...From HR and not Chisholms...Still there is time :rolleyes:
    PS I'm sure your kilt will be perfect on arrival ...It just seems that sort of place

    I own two hand sewn kilts. Of the two, I much prefer the heavyweight (16 oz.) 8 yard Morrison ancient. The ~5 yard Morrison green (hunting) works well when the weather is warm though.

    Thank you,

    I have to say that my new US Army tartan heavyweight from Alexis Malcolm is pretty sweet. It just feels "solid" to wear and the heavier material doesn't wrinkle much at all.

    I definitely recommend that everyone should own at least one of the heavyweights.

    Now being made by Lochcarron - A 16 oz 9 yard in the Ancient Lamont Tartan.

    The list has grown since this thread was started.
