SWK night out...
My SWK Standard in "NightStalker" came Saturday morning; Sunday evening I wore it out for dinner with the lass and another couple...
My general feel? It's a very nice kilt. Well put-together, pleats are wonderful, fabric has a very nice hand, and it looks pretty darn good. (If I do say so myself!)
My only complaint? I feel it's a bit shorter than I'd prefer. Another inch or inch and a half would make the length ideal. (Hence the reason I order my UKs in "long"!)

(With the kilt hose, black flashes, and braided-basic sporran from SWK. My kilt pin decided to wander off in the course of the evening; I found it this morning on the floor mat of my car.)
I had been wearing a pair of plain black Skechers through the evening. Not quite brogues, but just as good in my book.
Somewhat surprisingly, I got *no* comments from folks out and about. I was expecting to hear at least something... A few friends asked if it was a "real plaid". Yes, it's a real tartan, no, it's not a clan tartan, because I have a bit of a problem with wearing a clan that's not my own. Just my personal opinion.
*sigh*
These blasted things are going to be an expensive addiction!
