    These are the kilts that will wear well at weddings, highland games, concerts, dinners, events, or anytime that you feel the need to dress a bit more authentically... or you can wear them with a T Shirt!

    Our Semi Traditional kilts have a tapered and fringed front apron. This model generally has 18-35 pleats (.75 to 1 inch wide) and a triple buckle closure system. Each one comes with tapered hips and is made to your measurements to insure a proper fit. They come with 2 belt loops (4 inches tall) on the back of the kilt to accommodate a traditional kilt belt. The Semi Traditional kilts are all hand pleated with an exacting standard to either the Sett or the Stripe.

    Our Semi Traditional kilts are made from Poly Viscose (and a select few tartans are cotton twill), which is an 11 oz machine washable fabric. These tartans are all registered with the Scottish Tartan Authority.
    This is straight from their page.

    Mark me down for a semi-trad. The gf is totally for it, which is a good sign. As far as people wearing uniform parts, the only thing I take issue with is wearing rank. The only reason for that is when I see someone wearing rank insignia, I assume they once held that rank. When it comes to officer rank, your are best not to wear it if you did not hold it - there's legal issues involved there. Anything else, I consider to have a booster role. My cousin wears the insignia of the 101st Airborne Division on his motorcycle jacket because I used to be in that unit. Guess I gotta get him an 82nd one now.
