    Big Time Jones for a Short Time...

    I just ordered my first tartan kilt... a USA Kilts Clark/Clergy Casual kilt... I was prepared to wait the 8-9 weeks until I saw the extra $25 I could pay to get it within a week! Holy crap thats the best $25 I ever spent! So, with any luck, I'll have a Clark/Clergy tartan kilt to wear to the holiday party a week from this Friday (fitting since I work at a church...)

    I can't wait for that thing to get here!

    Yeah, their rush charge is definitely worth it I was surprised just how quickly my USAK Ireland's National showed up, and I'll definitely be buying more from Rocky and Kelly.

    Ditto, the $25.00 is cheap. I spent the rush charge and my Buchanan kilt was at my P.O. well within the week. For the quality of this fantastic kilt its really quite a good deal. I'm very happy with mine, I'm wearing it as I type.

    Thanks for the order, Kevin! I'm glad you guys think the $25 is worth it. We tried to keep the costs low, while giving ourselves a little encentive to work "overtime" to get the kilt done.










    Hmmm.... Maybe we should raise the price...












    HAHAHAHAAHHA... don't worry. The rush charge won't be going up any time soon.

    OMG! The kilt arrived! It is absolutely a night and day difference from my Utilikilt. Don't get me wrong, I love my UK, but this is no where near the same animal...

    The USA Kilt casual I got has more heft, seemingly acres more cloth, better swish, better everything! The wider, more traditional style apron will definitely take some getting used to... I sort of got used to it naturally falling between my legs when I sat, but I'm sure I like this much, much more. There just aren't enough good things to say about this kilt!

    I'll get some pictures up later, when someone gets home to take said picture!

    Congrats Captain! I'm glad you like what you've got. I love my SWK but I can not WAIT to get my hands on my wool custom. My next kilt is going to be from USAK, but that's a little ways down the road still.
