    I'll go back and remove my earlier statement and, again, I apologize.
    No worries old chap.Hope you get some sleep soon.

    Love camo.
    Love what Alan H did to that camo.
    Love what that camo does for you - you wear it with panache.

    Jaime, my only criticism is the white shirt. When wearing camouflage, you should have one of the military sweaters (either black or OD green would be fine).

    That belt and buckle was from Target of all places and bought on clearance for $10 last Spring.

    The turtleneck and socks are actually beige and match a color in the kilt in person. I think you are very right that this would work well with a wooly-pully commando sweater. I do have one but it has to be awfully cold to wear it without overheating here in mild California.

    Cheers

    Wow, I like it. Still looking for camo in a decent weight fabric to attempt my own.
