I agree with Jim, that is a good looking tartan.
Charlie we are commenting on how similar it is the Lamont tartan. These two clans lived and married together for centuries. I think they shared a common weaver who was too lazy to invent two distinct tartans. he said heck i will throw in a couple of minor changes and they won't notice anything.
enjoy it

Yep, the weaver removed the black lines and added a white line to the green panel and called it Lamont.

Charlie,
You are looking good (though wearing proper length kilt hose would be much better! )
Cheers

Thanks for the comments.
To answer the burning question regarding casual vs. semi-trad, all of my kilts from USAK are casual. I'd rather have two different (or five or six) kilts than have two kilts that are more tailored.
As to Panache's comment (which I knew someone would bring up) regarding sock length. What can I say? I'm more comfortable in crew socks rather than kilt hose unless I'm dressing up or it is really cold (well, cold for Nor Cal anyway).
