Do you wish to wear this with your kilt? Or for times when not wearing your kilt? I once wore a Maple leaf tartan shirt with my Maple Leaf kilt (not to mention a Maple Leaf tie that no one noticed, never again it was all too much. Even a waistcoat (on the diagonal) and kilt in matching tartan might be too much. Mind you, tartan pocket flaps on a charcoal wool waistcoat would be a nice touch.

I respectfully disagree. 

I bought this from Scotweb. I bought mine at £44. I hope that doesn't break the bank too much.

I'm glad you posted your pic, as I was just looking at their site and was curious if they also tailored these on the bias, as their pictures show them all on the horizontal.
BTW, looks sharp!

You simply need to mention that in the special instructions when completing your order.

Maybe I just like being a little too much, some times.

Robert, we wear kilts to try to blend into our environment hence the need for hunting tartans. None of us on this forum want to stand out. You look splendid as usual.

Ah, so Lady Chrystel should have used the Hunting Robertson instead of the Red ...

Robert, Grant's favored prey is la femme qui soulève des kilts (I think that is the correct translation ). He has not quite grasped the concept that they hunt us, not the other way around.
Having looked at your pictures here and on Lady Chrystel's website, I need to think about sending her some Sackett tartan in poly-viscose.

Some PVs today are so incredible it makes you wonder... 
Yes, how right you are.
