Wow Ron, I totally missed this entire thread, And it's in my section.
I like the look. I remember when you ordered your first kilts from me and we spoke on the phone and you were totally unsure if you could ever pull off a kilt.
Now your the poster boy for Tourism Arizona. Great outfit.
A because the question was asked, here are the specs on Ron's kilt.
Dress Model
9.38 yards
65%/35% Poly/Cotton
12 oz., 2/2 Twll
Maroon
The apron is 17" wide
There are 29 knife pleats
The Sett is 8"
Each pleat has a 1" reveal and a depth of 3.5"
Ron asked that there be no pockets and no Logo

So only reletively minor changes to a standard FK. When is somebody really challenge Ashton? I thought my desert camo with anti-kilt lifting/checking properties was something but it appears all my kilts have that.
