    MacLaren, for my own personal selfish reasons.

    I find it a toss up between the Gordon and the MacLaren. They both work well with black or brown accessories. If I had to choose between the two (and a coin wasn't handy) I would lean toward the Gordon. Mainly because the tartan has a less busy look to my eyes. But, that's just my two cents worth.

    Gotta go with Ali on this one. Of course, I would try to find a way to whiten out the yellow stripe and have a Ferguson kilt instead, but that's just me

    When I got my first kilt, I had wanted to get the SWK Standard in the Irish National tartan, but found that they had hardly anything in my size. Pretty limited in sizes altogether, actually. So I was going to suggesting checking sizes before getting your heart set... but I just looked and they seem to have plenty to choose from now. Maybe they got more stock in? You'll be happy with whichever you choose!
