Yes the three of you will have your kilts before Christmas. I've encountered a couple of delays, one being my health as most of you know I have MS and it rears it's ugly head every once in awhile. Some of the leather kilts have been taking a little longer due to some new and improved construction techniques. and machinery that in the long run will have a major payback on time. The shop is a humming with me going from one sewing machine to the next.
What some of you may not know is that I do all the work myself. I make all the leather straps. I sew each and every kilt that I sell. I go out and shop for the best hardware, hand pick the leather hides and make sure I get the best quality fabric that goes in every RKilt.
This year I did twice as many shows and that cut into production time. As a result I'm sorry to say I am behind on the orders.
I will though do my best on the making of every kilt. I'm having a blast doing it.
Just sorry I'm having to make you wait.
Cheers

........ This is why R-Kilts are singularly special in the modern style of kilt.... and well worth the wait.

Not a problem Robert, now I'm twice as excited about the forthcoming kilt, but half as impatient. So where does that leave me?!

Hey Robert, sorry to hear the 'ol devil' has raised it's head again. I truly admire the work you achieve even with your disability.
Don't stress over my kilt, I can wait since I already have one. I'm just being greedy! Look after Erin and Blu first, they have yet to experience a hemp kilt!

Well if nobody is in a hurry for their RKilt, I'll just phone up Robert and get him to make one for me first!
Hehehe!
Seriously, take care of yourself Robert.
