In the email, I'll need:

Rocky,

I'm not sure where we left off, but according to my circumstances, I will not be able to place an order as soon as I would like...I will be home as early as Jan 2008...If there's any material left, then I would like to purchase it then as I will have the means of forwarding the money.

Respectfully,

Chase

No probem... there will be plenty left for your order, Chase.

My measurements for the last few semi-trads should still be good.

I know there are a LOT to make...patience...

Rocky's a sandbagger. He said the turnaround time for kilts is 8-9 weeks. I ordered mine last month (23rd of October if memory serves) and it was delivered yesterday.

So, here are my thoughts on the kilt. Just to give you something to ponder while you patiently wait for yours to arrive.

I looked at the directions for measuring the kilts and decided to try something. The waist measurement is about right, but I went a bit small on the hips. I don't really have hips, just a place where they should be. So, I ordered a 36/35/23.

I was a little worried that it wouldn't fit right. Normally stout, the internet and credit cards don't mix. I'm happy to say my worries were of no account. I love the way it fits. Not quite as loose as my Utilikilt or my SportKilt but it doesn't seem to make a difference when I'm walking.

The buckles are brilliant. It's nice having a way to tweak the fit of your kilt like that and they look pretty damn spiffy.

My first impression is Rocky makes a damn fine kilt.
