    So the only white you are wearing is only what's in the tartan?? Just a thought.
    I prefer the dark blues w/ my Clarke



    Black and lots of ladies in black works too.

    Your eyes do not deceive. It is a Clan Cian Tartan.

    That's the clan my family comes from... I hope to have a kilt in that eventually myself, but it's hard to find and pricey...

    Thumbs up

    Hi Graham1

    The 23rd of January will mark the 25th anniversary of my ordination and a friend of mine is making a kilt in the Clergy Ancient Tartan to mark the occasion. I recently saw the tartan at a Kirkin 'O the Tartan worn by the Pastor of the church where it was held and it was quite a striking tartan but the Ancient apprears to have less white than the Clergy you are wearing.

    The kilt you have is a wonderful looking Tartan! I would have to agree with others here and suggest a lighter color kilt hose and shirt would tend to mute the white in the kilt but that is only my opinion and heaven only knows I barely can make things come together for myself!

    Congratulations on the new kilt wear it always in good health and Grace.

    Bill

    Nice to see the Welsh flag on the T shirt too! That's a very impressive building in the background!

    It's really NOT hard to find if you know where to look! We can readily get it in 11 oz. I personally think that's 11 oz is a bit light for a Traditional kilt, but since it's the only weight that Cian is READILY available in, it's pretty much your only option (unless you REALLY want to spend some $$$ and have it woven in a single kilting length for 1 kilt).

    Is that 11 oz wool or PV? Could I get it from you in a Casual or Semi-Trad?

    That's ONLY wool... it would be available in a 5 yarder (I'd probably suggest getting a "6 yarder" since it's lighter) for about $350 to $375.
