SWK Thrifty Review and Picts

Don, I agree with McMurdo, that the brown daywear rule is generally a thing of the past, at least here in the USA. In fact one doesn't find near as many brown sporrans for sale as opposed to black. Here's a blog entry by Matt Newsome on the subject of brown v. black.

In regards to Oatmeal hose, some forumites believe that that particular color works well with most tartans, making it a sort of universal hose color.

Thanks Jake. I think what may have surprised me most was the choice of colors. I had always though brown was the standard leather color - much as the Sam Brown was. I know the US Army was leathered in brown until the mid 50's. They issued my Dad a bottle of black leather dye to convert his boots, shoes and such to a black color.
