New Edinburgh Castle Kilts

The tartan itself is nice enough and while I have a Unionkilt and like the pockets on that I don't favour the style of pockets on these kilts.
HOWEVER, each to their own.
The revered Hamish himself has some kilts like this and he makes them look darn good.

Pockets? What pockets? Are those some type of cargo-style pocket on the front? I only see in on the gent on the left (or is this just a fold of the kilt?).
Why carry a sporran if you have pockets? Seems a bit superfluous.
I like the tartan but withold judgement on the kilt until examining one closer.

The gent on the left has the usual 21st century removable pockets on his kilt.

I like the look of the one pocket on a solid colour kilt, but I am not sure of the pockets on a tartan kilt. I really like the tartan though.

For those who prize looking as Caucasian as possible, there is nothing like a dark kilt and black hose to show off one's pasty white knees, I always say.

I like it. The red and black could be an entirely appropriate Bulldawg tartan to wear to UGA football games.

I must admit I don't think its a good photo to promote the Tartan, thay all look pretty ####

Not the look I'd choose but I like the tartan.

I like the tartan. The whole ensemble in the photos, however, is not my style. I wish there was a better photo of the tartan, perhaps with a pleat shot too.
