I've not worn a kilt casually, except for a couple of times in undergraduate school. I had a devastating knee injury ten years ago and wore a kilt full time with my knee brace. Until I outgrew it from lack of exercise. I'm back in shape, older and more confident now so I ordered a new outfit for my graduation in August. I also have ordered a few day wear items so that I can broaden my horizons and go out kilted in the day.

Tucson here.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome O'Neille,

I'm the guy in Page, up in the canyonlands.

Two suggestions to consider. For our hot weather, don't think you can beat USA Kilts Casual. Click on the ad top left and feast your eyes. They're light weight and great for us folks who sit a lot, they don't wrinkle up.

And, Kathy Lare over in Albuquerque www.kathyskilts.com the only hand sewn kiltmaker here in the U.S. that was trained in Scotland.

Is Buzz Kidder Kilts still out of Sierra Vista? Know some of the stuff comes from Texas and last weekend, at the Arizona Highland Celtic Games in Flagstaff, their vendor tent had a different name on it...David's something selling Buzz Kidder kilts.

Welcome, O'Neille from the land of the Ducks in the Pacific Northwest.

My Dad and stepmother live in Sierra Vista. We were there for Christmas last year. I do have to say it was one of the most pleasant Christmases I've ever spent - great kilting weather.

And welcome from the Windy City! I will second Ron's suggestion of a USAK. They are great and Rocky is running a special for XMarkers right now.

Welcome from our nation's Cesspool er.....Capital. Pull up a chair and stay awhile.

My brother in law worked for TRW for 10 years or so after retiring from the US Airforce. Last two years were in Sierra Vista. Said it was some of the most beautiful country he'd ever seen.

Guid on ya for finding us (as another forum member would say).

Hello O'Neille and welcome from Canton, OH. a drinking town with a football problem. I think you'll find the place warm, and the rabble friendly!
Slainte!

Welcome, from a fellow Zonie! I'm one of the Phoenician X-Markers Phil was referring to.

From what, may I ask are you graduating? Is it some Army school at Fort Huachuca?
