    LIke Steve53, I got my first one form Highland Heritage (now in Elkton, Maryland), and it is a Robertson Hunting tank made by Edgar. It's till a beaut, and I wear it often. Here's a pic taken last spring.

    It was a warm summer day, when i ventured into the grand old Armoury at Fort York, in Toronto. there amongst the many different unit's on the north wall, was a sign that read " Join the TORONTO SCOTTISH REGIMENT" In short that was 37 years ago and three tailor made kilts for me, and never looked back with anyting but pride. For today i still wear my kilt with the pride of a young man, in the fact that if any SCOt can wear a pant's into the field, for work or battle, but the reall courage is to train for war, in a kilt all day, and then be man enough to go play in it afterwards, and look good in both cases.

    Ten years ago, while living in New Jersey, I aquired my made in Scotland Malcolm plaid, fèileadh beag from Piper's Cove of Kearny. I haven't been able to wear it for 7 years! This year, I've lost 25 pounds and able to wear it again. Here's my link to my pictures of the 2007 Grandfather Mountain Highland Games/ There I wearing it, my Malcolm Féileadh Mòr and Robertson Féileadh Mòr.
