Welcome! And don't wait until June, order one now and get used to wearing it EVERYWHERE! Then when you go to the games, you will not be self-conscious!

I'm just up the road from you in Asheville. We have a great celtic pub here so give me a holler if you're ever up this way.
That reminds me, we need to set up a kilt night some time soon...

Welcome to the forum. I am sure within a few days here you'll find all the kilt makers you need. BTW check out our own M.A.C. Newsome on the members list. He has the Scottish Tartans Museum and also makes kilts. Welcome again and prepare to be kilted

Thanks everyone for the hearty welcome. I'm looking forward to getting my kilt and going kilting. I'll hopefully be ordering one soon. I'm a Buchanan and I'm hoping to find one in the Hunting Ancient or the Hunting Modern. And I'll be going kilted as soon as possible!

Matt,
If you want to make a day-trip up from Greenville sometime, we are about 2.5 hours away, and I can show you swatches of the various different Buchanan tartans from a couple of different mills. The hunting Buchanan in modern or ancient colors is no problem, but there are some other great options out there, as well, including the Old Buchanan, and Lochcarron's new Heirloom Buchanan cloth.
We can offer you pretty much any style of kilt you might like (knife pleat, box pleat, four yard, five yard, eight yard, nine yard, etc.!).
Ok, advertising over now... back to your regular X Marking.
Matt

Secondly, I'm wonderng if anybody is from SC. Or if anybody know's of a good place where I can get a Kilt down here. I'm new to the area and I don't know where any other Scotsmen are!
Good to see more in greenville sc. haven't seen anyone on the street yet wearing kilts. The grandfather games in NC had kilts last year. Franklin NC has a place to order them from and a scottish shop. One also in Highland NC.
Stillwater is fast and cheap.

You're not the only one. I'm down in Charleston. A reminder that there's a Highland games here in September at Boone Hall Plantation. We're also lucky in that our local pipe band was just promoted to Grade 2...quite an accomplishment.

It's great to see some fellow Carolina kilt wearers! I hope to see you all at the Highland Games this year! And Scotty, I don't have a kilt yet, but when I do, you'll know, I'll be wearing it all the time!

Yeah. We started to do that. I'll PM you my phone number and we can discuss it.
