    So, what does the "shadow tartan" look like?

    The colour is way off, but this pic shows the weave of the shadow "tartan" quite well...



    This is what it looks like in proper colours...

    Kilt on!

    I really like the solid "colour" shadow tartan SWKs. In a frenzy I picked up the black, green and saffron, and they get extensive use. I'm in the process of becoming THOROUGHLY accustomed to the fit of custom kilts (the 4 yard tweed from Matt Newsome and the USAKs in casual Farquharson and semi-trad Ramsay) but for an off the peg kilt, the SWK shadow tartans just kick butt.

    I've noticed the difference between made to measure and off the peg . . . SWK's are very comfortable, but putting on a made to measure kilt is heavenly. The first time I put on a made-to-measure, I thought it was too small, but once you get use to the fit, there is nothing like it.

    I still want an SWK saffron though
