Stillwater Kilts disapointment
Well, I hate to be bearer of bad news but I've just received my second SWK kilt (super fast like my first one).
Problem is, even though the size and model are the same as my first one, this new one is slightly over 4 inches larger than the one I ordered, and compared to my first one (as I laid the new one on top of the old one) same size and model.
And I mean big, I put it on, secured the straps to the tightest setting and I still ended up with a huge amount that I had to fold..it looked horrible. When I let go of the fold...the kilt fell off...it was hilarious how much bigger than the size the tag says it is.
And to make matters worse, I was at work when the mail delivered it so my wife unwrapped the rest of my order and since the kilt was the same size as the old one, removed the basting stitches ( I know, mortal sin) so now here I am all ready for an event tomorrow and no kilt to go with (my old one is a solid black).
shucks!
The rest of the order was fine. So that is that.
I just placed another order for a one size smaller kilt hoping this one will fit.
If anyone wants it, I'll place an ad for it in the right section of the forum as it is just unfit for me to wear.
