    Cool RSL, looks great!

    In comparison, it appears that the yellow is a bit less orange than the HOE, but other than that the colors look pretty much the same.

    What is the sett size on that beauty? It appears a bit larger than the HOE 13oz.

    Did Strathmore make the kilt as well as the tartan?

    Cheers,
    Brooke

    ok i think the sett is 7", thats the mesurment from the double yellow, going from the inside yellow to the next inside yellow, if i have it wrong please correct me

    strathmore also made the kilt, (the shipping package had strathmores address as the return) so i think they made the kilt as well,
    i odered the kilt before joining the forum, and before i really started reading as much as i could, so i did not ask these questions when buying it, and the salesman was not or i dont remember him giving that info, but live and learn, now i know this stuff.
    No lose threading anywere on the kilt, and i would not have any problem with getting another tartan and kilt from Strathmore. But i wont be using the store here in SLC again, i'll just oder online next time,

    i have been eye balling some of Rocky's USA kilts

    Yep

    Yep you did it right, center of double yellow to center of double yellow. I think any other same point to same point would give you the same 7 inch dimension as well. I just measured my House of Edgar (HOE) version and it is just a hair over 6 inches so the Strathmore sett, is a bit larger. And, I have heard good things about their material and their kilt making as well, so another congratulations to you. Wear it in good health!

    They did a heck of a job to be sure. Looks great, congrats on the purchase.

    You made a wise purchase! Of course, you realize, that you have started yourself on the road to a kilt addiction because one is too many and a thousand aren't enough.
