    Saffron Tie

    SWK had a wool tie on their site last night in the Saffron color. I went ahead and ordered it. I wanted two but they seemed to only have the one.

    I'm not sure yet, but I may cut it up and make flashes. (If they had had two ties I would have kept one as a tie and cut the other up for the flashes)

    It should be here in a few days and I'll post a pic of how close it matches the SWK heavyweight kilt.

    Call Jerry about it. Chances are he has more but the store only lists one at a time.

    Well, it's your call, of course, and at $16 the tie costs less than Matt Newsome charges for flashes ($18). The tie does come in the shadow tartan, but I'm not convinced that that subtlety will be visible in flashes even under the best of conditions (anyone that close to flashes is on-the-floor-drunk after all). If, however, you feel your time to transmogrify a tie into flashes is worth two bucks, well then -- good on ya! Show us the pictures when you're done.

    Regards,
