Burnett & Struth Macdonald of Glenaladale
Here is a picture of me at the Highland Games in Salado Texas this weekend wearing for the first time my Burnett & Struths Macdonald of Glenaladale Ancient. Can honestly say it was a great wear, look and fit. With me is Alasdair Macdonald a great old chap from Canada.

Dashing outfit, guy! It's a beautiful looking kilt and you fitted it out very nicely.

Great looking outfit. The kilt tones well with your jacket, too.

My first kilt was an Ancient MacBean from B&S, and I loved it; light and easy to wear. I've given it to my son as I now have a hand-stitched 8-yard Modern of my own. The hand-stitched is a completely different bird as it sits and sways much more nicely. For example, on the left side of the apron, the casual kilt tended to flare out the first one or two pleats - that doesn't happen with the hand-stitched. The casual on the other hand is much easier to sit down in as there are fewer pleats to sweep out of the way.
Yours looks especially nice; you must be one happy guy!
