Being that there are a good many tartans to choose from, it's easy to have 70+ kilts (*cough* Hamish *cough*) and not have a repeat. Being that my first kilt was a Sportkilt, and they don't carry the MacPherson, I opted for the Loch Ness tartan because I just liked it's look. I'm wearing it right now actually. As for the second Sportkilt, I went for the Black Watch tartan, for the same reason. I merely liked it. My third kilt was a USAKilt Casual. Being that they carry the MacPherson tartan, I chose that, for obvious reasons. For my fourth kilt, I opted for the US Army tartan, because my family has moer soldiers in the Army than any other branch of service. Fourth was the Pacific Trail Hiker kilt from Sportkilt, because I wanted something lightweight, and I preferred the blue over the other two options.
