    James....

    No, we don't have any Irvine tartans... there are only about 75 PV tartans readily made. Now, if you wanted to order 130 Meters of the Irvine tartan at $10 a meter (plus shipping from the UK) I can gladly make one for you ;) . hahahaha

    Sorry to disapoint.

    Perhaps it was not meant to be. I guess I'll have to save for a tank for an Irvine tartan kilt There are still plenty PV tartans I wouldn't mind adding to my wardrobe . . .

    Hey Breeze,

    Wait seemed about right...ordered on 6/28 - a Wednesday, and they arrived at my post office on 8/7 a Monday. That's five weeks and change for four kilts...seems quite fair to me for custom sized kilts.

    I only jonesed a little, but more because I knew they were coming - rather than because they weren't here yet....if that subtle distinction makes sense.

    Still have two more on the special fabric order deal, a Gordon Red and a Cladish...but that's a special deal and I know there's gonna be a wait for them.

    Try Gordon Kirkbright at Fraser and Kirkbright. On his remnants page he has some wool Weathered Irvine, and at extremely good prices to boot.

    He's the gentleman who provided the XMarks tartan material. I picked up some BC tartan from him and sent it to Rocky to be made into what has turned out to be my nicest kilt.

    Something to consider anyways.
