The Road to Kiltdom...

[Riverkilt]

First kilt I ever ordered was the Utilikilt original in woodland camo.



It took 90 days to get here...three months...by the time it arrived I had two SportKilts, three Amerikilts, and probably a few others.

My first was one of the very first 4-yd PV kilts from Bear Kilts. I still wear it often.

Only traditional kilts were available when I (well my Parents!) bought my first kilt 50 years ago.

My first (and only) kilt is a 15oz Devon Original (see my Avatar) from McCalman Kilts in Fife.

There are many paths that lead to the comfortable and stylish land of Kilts.

There are those that start out on the trail with the fabled 8 yard heavyweight wool handsewn "tank". Other's start on their way with mass produced less expensive traditional styled kilts. Still another group takes the trail of the modern kilt variants.

So the question is, what was that first kilt that got you here?

Cheers

You need to add one more category to cover the machine sewn 4 to 5 yard casual kilts made by companies like the Kiltstore. It is difficult to say what kilt I got first. The first one I ordered was a machine sewn casual in Macneil of Barra tartan from the company, henceforth known as "Clan Walmart". The Second kilt ordered and of course the first to arrive was a Black Watch Sportkilt. THe Third one ordered was another Macneil of Barra casual, this time from Scottishkilts.net Of course, it arrived just after the first one I ordered.

My first was an 8yard Modern Farquharson from Kinloch Anderson in Edinburgh, which I wear rarely nowadays, as Im more into contemporary kilts. I wear it for formal occasions only.

My first kilt was an 8yd., 16oz. in Rose hunting modern purchased nine years ago to wear in my wedding. I gotta say, I loved being kilted at my wedding but I felt kind of sorry for my wife. Normally, the bride in her white wedding gown is the center of attention. Unfortunately, I think I may have stolen some of her wind by wearing my kilt. I seemed to get a lot more attention than her. I don't think she minded, though.

first was a handsewn 8yrd 16oz MacGreor

SWL standard in the nightstalker tartan. Ordered at the same time as my heather gray UK mocker, but we all know that nobody beats Jerry's delivery speed....

I would say my first was a Sportkilt, but sorry, I don't really see them as being real kilts. So I'll say Black SWK Heavyweight, right before he switched to wool. I have one of the last acrylic Heavy's.
