Oh, man.... I don't NEED another kilt. I don't, I don't.

**Casper** · 12th June 09, 12:08 PM

All over this like a fat kid on a Smartie!

I have one of their casual kilts, and love it. Top notch. The Maple Leaf is also on my must-have list... the 20% discount code they also have out makes it even sweeter!

They are sewn up on the premises by some very talented kiltmakers, in fact Burnett's and Struth were for a long time the premier kiltmaker in Canada. They have sewn up kilts for many of the pipe bands here for years. I would think they are able to do it by sheer volume of orders.

Aaaaahhhh ! If a local girl wasn't already studying up on kilts and hadn't offered to sew up my Maple Leaf ...

CT - darned tempting idn't it ?

OK, it's $157 US, but I'm a Big Guy...add $27 and change for Big Guy hips. Add shipping.

$200.

*sigh*....so I decided not to.

Well, by the time you add it all up, it's quite a bit more, but still...I know it's a great deal.

Thing is, I have five kilts "in the hopper" right now, meaning under construction or I have the material...

1. THe Gray Stewart knife pleat is nearing completion

2. A Hall, modern box pleat

3. An Ancient MacNaughton, being done up by way2fractious

4. A double box pleat in the X Marks tartan, polyester viscose

....and probably a camouflage reverse kinguisse with big pleats.

so it's hard to get ANOTHER kilt. Do I really need it?
