Next kilt help

**that kilt guy** · 16th August 08, 04:16 AM

So I'm looking for my next kilt and each time I try to decide on the tartan I get a little farther away from actually picking one. I have a Weathered Mackenzie from SWK, a Hamilton Grey that's on its way, and my Sportkilt I wear around the house.

So I'm asking the experts... What do you all think would be a nice tartan to continue you my collection with?

Tough question
If it were me I would go for something that I have connection to, family or otherwise. Of course you might want to go for a district tartan such as the Isle of Skye.

Here are some of my Isle of Skye:

Everyone seems to really love that one. I have to get a swatch of it now just to see for myself.

Very wise indeed. Well done. That goes for all tartans, not just IoS.

My vote also would be for the IoS---now my favorite to wear. You put it on and it just feels like your in scotland.

I agree with the rest.. Isle of Skye - it's the most beautiful tartan I've ever seen. Though I do see your dilemma, it's quite hard making a decision when there are so many beautiful tartans from which to choose.

Honestly, I'd go for something like Mackenzie Hunting, pleated to a nice white stripe.

Don't underestimate it. It's very nice.

Personally, I'm saving for a Robertson Hunting, pleated to the red stripe, as Barb T. says it is fantastic, and Robertson is my wife's clan.
