    Actually I got noticed a little bit! I, or at least the XMarks tartan, was recognized by 3 folks who are on our forum, I must apologize that remembering names is not my strong suit, but it was nice meeting you!

    I've been approched several times at faire about the XMarks tartan, it always gets positive comments.

    I was confronted by a 30ish woman who told me very authoritatively that because she could see my knees, my kilt was too short, and that made it a skirt! I advised her that;
    A, If she came to the renfair to run around critiquing kilts she would stay busy all day on Highland weekend!
    And B, It's only a skirt if you're wearing something under it !




    I'm sure it's hard to find off the rack kilts when you are 10 feet tall, but this guy's kilt might be too long!



    I didn't post this one before, mostly because it's not that good a pic. I didn't want to chase the guy down to get a better one. I know we sometimes wonder here about folks wearing their PCs and formal kit during the day, or to Highland games etc... But this is the first time I've seen it at the renfaire!

    Giving him the benefit of the doubt, there were weddings that morning, he may have been in one of them.
