Ham,
That would be a Grand Tartan, quite possibly becoming as popular as IOS

Congratulations on a stunning kilt! As always thanks for providing the fashion guidance to us new kilt wearers.

Hamish, I have a question.

Saturday watching my friends son play a soccer match I was approached by a Lady with a U.K. accent (perhaps Manchester?) asking me what tartan I was wearing and what my family affiliation to it was. With all the lovely tartans you wear, are you ever challenged by the "Tartan Police , volunteer reserve division"?

Just Curious. And a bit jealous of that kilt, very striking.

Actually, no! I do not believe I have ever been questioned about my connections with any clan or tartan although I suppose that very rarely someone will ask, "What is that tartan?", but they do not press further questions. I find that no-one really takes much notice of my kilts thesedays.

No one would dare question Hamish

Maybe because the British have manners and we Americans don't?

Very nice kilt, Hamish, and very nicely modelled! I love your black sweater, too!

Hamish, that's a beautiful kilt! But, if you keep this up, we'll never be able to "catch up" (82 kilts?) with you

Looking very smart, Hamish.
A beautiful kilt which I am sure you will want to wear often, but collecting kilts is like collecting cars, you can only wear or drive one at a time.

That's brilliant! Thanks for the photos. It's always nice to see how many ways you can work the same kilt with different shirts and sweaters. Great pictures.

Congratulations, Hamish!

A fantastic looking kilt & a remarkable accomplishment acquiring your 82nd kilt.

I'm quite impressed at how you were able to so perfectly match your polo shirt to the muted red in the tartan.

You're a hard act to follow!
