    Scottish National pleat shots?

    I'm seriously considering getting another casual kilt from USA Kilts and I think it might be in the Scottish National tartan. I haven't been able to find any good pictures showing off the pleats in a kilt of this tartan by Rocky. Does anyone have one they can post? I'm not sure how the white will look when pleated. I'm hoping it'll be less noticeable.

    Not sure if anyone has any pics of their Casual SN with a pleat shot...

    What I WILL say is that we pleat this one to both sett and stripe (usually the red and white stripes). I don't think it's 'too much' white.

    Now pleating MacKenzie DRESS to the white section WOULD be too much white.

    I think I've gotten over my fear of the white...I'm not THIS close to calling you to order a Buccleuch!

    Thank you, sir! I ended up going with a muted MacPherson from Burnett's & Struth for the new kilt...the slightly tamer red shades and the chance for wool did it for me. Might be my version of a tank.
    But the Buccleuch and Scottish National from USAK are on my wish list!
