    Yikes...with my X Marks Vest, Kilt, and hose....????

    Any way to see pics of another tartan so I better understand the options?

    Understand if not, thanks if so.

    Ron,

    Phil has exactly the photo you need but I couldn't find it with a quick search.

    In it he is wearing a kilt, formal waist coat with tartan on the bias, and argyll hose all in the Galbraith ancient tartan ( because Phil is a gentleman of extraordinary taste )

    I will shoot him a PM and see if he will post the picture here so you can see how the look works.

    Cheers

    Jamie

    Saving change tip: Do so in a container that is not see through. Change always grows slower if you watch it.
    Best wishes on saving for the hose Jamie, I bet they will look great with the X-marks kilt.

    Yes, it is a scientifically proven fact that coins mate and breed only in the dark, like in a pants pocket, under furniture cushions, in a coffee can (rather than a glass jar.

    Good idea Sara.

    That's a bridge too far IMHO.

    That's what I always used to think.

    After seeing a number of others wear them here on XMTS I decided I just had to try getting one pair of truly authentic / classic / traditional hose.

    So this is my way of taking baby steps toward it.


    Cheers

    One could also afford it by giving up Starbucks $5 lattes for the next 3 weeks. You could also brew at home with a take away cup and save that in around 2 months.
