What tartan is this? I REALLY like it!

Great pics by the way! I'm jealous as well!

That's my, just recently recieved, USA "Off-the-rack" casual kilt that I got just for the cruise. Rocky calls it "Scottish National." I'm not sure, but I think he had it designed or he designed it just for USA. Either way, it's a really nice tartan.

I called him up, after deciding that I didn't want to take many of my more expensive kilts on this trip. Rocky got it to me at almost SWK speed. I ended up only taking my Leatherneck Tank, which I used for the formal nights, and almost all the rest (7 in all) were SWK or USA.

My SWK and USA casuals I used for almost all daily wear and every ashore trip. Ashore and topside it was really hot and humid. Both SWK and USA kilts held up very well.

I traveled in a USA kilt, and it was great for airplane seats. Easy to sweep, and no scrunches when eventually standing. Way better than the jeans that others favored.

Daily I had several good comments on every tartan. It was a fun trip.

More flix to follow.

Now the scenic stuff:

Lovely! The best scenes are those of you in a kilt. You do well with the kilt in a variety of different situations. I have to say your collection has me envious--I have one (or two) now officially added to my wish list.

Maybe you could go back and identify the kilt and tartan in each photo (i.e., Black Stewart SWK, Leatherneck USAK, etc.)
