I cheat and wear my Albannach tartan kilt from USAK all the time. Nothing wrong with that- it gets hot here in the summer, and the 5 yard 13 oz wool is very comfortable in the heat. I actually like to wear the Albannach for the same reason you chose yours- it has a nice muted/weathered look to it. I can see where it would have fit right in in the late 1600's. I really do need to get a great kilt in the PV that Rocky offers.

So- things I like in those pictures- your targe. I need to finish mine. That's my winter project. Your sporran is also great! Color me jealous. Your tartan coat... I could do without one of those. Anything long sleeved in the Colorado desert in summer is bad. (That's not to say that I don't like it... I wish it were practical to wear one here.) And then there's the fact that my reenactment group is not military- we're civilian. So a more plain swordsmans vest is, I think, more approriate both for our group, and our climate.

So out of curiosity, where did you get the musket? I have two from my great great grandfather that I have on occasion considered taking with me to reenactments, but they're family heirlooms and I can't quite convince myself to risk one of them. Also, where did you get the satchel? That's one thing I've been looking for and have been unable to find- at least one that suits my tastes I suppose.
