That MacCallum truly is a piece of art. And I'd get myself a Lamont If I could wear light colours, I just love that tartan. Great Pics!

Hahaha! I have a real problem with light colors too. Darn pasty skin.

Nice looking kilts. The MacCallum highlights Barb's skill.

And I have the SWK HW weathered Lamont as well. For anyone hesitating because it is a "lighter" tartan, go for it. It really has nice earthy colors, and I found out that women, at least my wife, think it is a really nice look. I was afraid because it seemed too close to a dress tartan, but she knows nothing about that and just likes the look on me.

Both look really fine, Tony. Barb is a magician!!!!!

I also have a SWK Ancient LaMont. Agree with KCW above that the colors are very warm and the kilt itself is a fine looking garment. It can easily slide from earthy/tweedy casual to a much more formal look. I love mine. It looks great with the red fox sporran I made.

Two (!) new kilts - lucky you

Yes, the MacCallum is really nice. I have never been a big fan of pleated to stripe, but I must admit that seeing pictures like this does bring me round to wanting my next kilt to be so.
