    Those are fantastic pics. Everyone looks dashing. It's photos like these that can go a long way to promote kilt wearing among the general public.

    I love the tweeds. You're also the man for tweed jackets.
    Great pics!

    Great photos Rocky - I especially like the first - you all look fantastic! I have recently fallen in love with tweed kilts... especially estate and gamekeeper tweeds. They are the cat's meow!

    They definitely make a statement. I can understand people's first few kilts being tartan, but after you have a few different kilts and a black jacket, a tweed "kilt suit" should be on the "to do" list. I'm very much a convert myself with a charcoal tweed suit, an olive tweed suit (in the pics) and a blue tweed kilt and vest.

    Matt has a few different outfits that are classy as heck as well... I like it b/c it's still a kilt, it's still classy, but it's different.

    Rocky,
    1.) The site needs to come back up, I got my "incentive" checque today.
    2.) I am with Matt, with a vest or jacket, the belt must go. Even though I like a belt for keeping the kilt in the right place, for the off the rack variety. It should not be necessary for a made to measure kilt such as the one I recently got from you. The fit is perfect, therefore NO belt is necessary.
    The belt also alters the person's image IMHO. A larger person (35 waist and up) looks taller and more in shape without the belt, as the kilt adds visual length, and reduces the visual width. Once a belt is added, it calls attention to the width on those of us that are larger. In the days of my old kilt an HofE 28, 33, 25, I wore a belt to make me look bigger!
