Aye,

I'd like to see that as well, Kyle.

He's (Matt) also an excellent piper, at least from this layman's perspective!

Anyways...finally got to look tonight and wanted to say that I love the pics and this thread. You definitely have class and style...I look to your pics for examples of what "right" looks like. I love the Regimental Doublet and intend to have one made at some point...though I'm thinking velvet in dark green with purple lapels and cuffs!!! If you're going to go for it...go all the way!!!!

I'm quite jealous of your direct connections with Scottish culture and heritage...and think it's great that you only have kilts with you clan tartan(s). I, unfortunately, cannot claim the same...though I recently was told of Scottish lineage by a distant cousin. I know there is some...but we've all been Americans now in my family for nearly 200 years...most of my lineage being English and Dutch.

Cheers mate, thank you for the kind words. I like your idea for your regulation doublet-I plan to purchase another at some point in velvet as well, from Kinloch-Anderson. I am also looking at a velvet sheriffmuir, montrose, and kenmore. Keep wearing the kilt my man, and wear it correctly!!!

Yours aye,

I must say Kyle, as there are many ways to wear the kilt, and many "styles" I have been trying to find and collect photos of ways that I like it worn, for reference when I wear mine.
You hit my style dead center! I applause you, one, for all of the awesome outfits, and 2, for your service to our country, Thank you!!!

Thank you my friend, and I thank you for your service in law enforcement! Keep wearing that kilt! Cheers mate.
