    When photoshoping one should keep in mind thast the exposed pleat is 3/4". What may look pleasing to the eye may end up being twice that. Do you know the size of sett? From that you could figure out how much to crop to replicate the look. It would be nice if they actually had a program to show the swatch pleated to various stripes.

    I emailed Rocky and asked for his opinion. I search out the tartans on here as well, Hamish has both the Caledonia and Prince of Wales made by USA kilts. Both look great, but both are pleated to set. I've only found Hamish and Ron with Prince of Wales kilts in posts. I emailed Rocky about the Caledonia pleated to the yellow stripe a few days ago, he said he thinks it would look "OK, not great, but OK" of course I want my kilt to look great though lol as far as the Clark tartan on there, it looks pretty good, but the Clark to me seems to be a bit louder I guess, the white stripe really sticks out more, we as the clergy tartans seems to be a bit darker or muted I guess. I supposed I'll wait for a later date on that one. My parents want to get me a clergy tartan kilt because when either of my sisters get married, they want me to preform the ceremony in the clergy kilt. ha ha, they say its an absolute must.
