Versatile weathered tartan

[macwilkin]

Grand -- just grand! A friend of mine has a Cumming hunting tartan in weathered colours that I have been admiring for a while now.

May I ask what your cap badges are? One looks like an Argylls badge, but I couldn't place the other one.

Weathered tartans really appeal to me as well...so much so my brother and I pulled the trigger together on MacIntosh Hunting Weathereds from Keltoi. I believe we are somewhere in the middle of his 15 kilt queue.

Macman, if you read this I'm first...(just kidding)

Sigh, sigh and sigh again!

If I was to order another kilt, which I am not, NO I AM NOT, NO REALLY I AM NOT. That is the one I could go for and still stay within my one tartan mindset. Oh heck, I had better go and have a walk in the rain!

I have succumbed to a kilt in weathered Macmillan Hunting... despite a long walk in the rain!

Doomed, I tell ya.... doomed.

To cajunscot, who asked what the bonnet badges are:
The one on my black glengarry is The 93rd Sutherland Highlanders, before they were dissolved in 1881, and amalgamated with the 91st Argylls to become the Agryll & Sutherland Highlanders.
The one on my green bonnet is the 42nd Highlanders before the 1881 Cardwell Reforms, when the regiment officially became known as The Black Watch and adopted the familiar badge we all recognize.
Both badges are brass.

Here are closups of both badges:
This is the 93rd:


And this is the 42nd:

That's beautiful. VERY nice.

I also love the weathered, Fall-earth tone tartans. I have no Clan affiliation from which to pick such a tartan, and the ancient MacNaughton is very orange. That is one reason why I got a kilt in the Capercaillie tartan.

Ooooooh dear do you think so? Hummmm I think perhaps you are right.But I shall resist "to the last man and the last bullet",as the saying goes and then maybe surrender well before the due time like all sensible people!

In the meantime No,no, NO I say! No new kilt, never, never, NEVER! --------but----------------perhaps----------------maybe--------I might just------------NO, NO, NEVER EVER-----------oh well another stroll in the rain is due, NOW!

Great looking kilt and well put together outfits! Thanks for sharing.

Jock...I completely understand the single kilt idea. I have a question for my own clarification...is it ONE and only one kilt? Or is it one tartan with possibly a couple actual kilts (perhaps variations in cloth weight), but looking the same so as to be seen as a single kilt?

Love that weathered tartan. As mentioned previously my Maclaren weathered is the same colouring and I also find it extremely versitile. I think your outfits and accoutrements look smashing Chukta. I also think your new hose colour selections will look grand.
