    Guess what got here yesterday!

    My new modern Douglas kilt, pleated to the double indigo stripes, arrived from Sandy St. James yesterday. It has been a seemingly long Jones indeed, but it's finally here.







    Next comes pics with me actually modeling it.

    Re: Guess what got here yesterday!

    Thanks; the color in the pic isn't exactly true--the green looks too green-blue. It's more forest green in reality. And taking the shot in the 'ambient' light mode makes it look too yellowish, as though by the fireplace. Modelling coming, I swear. I was out at an all-day band practice yesterday followed by pizza party at the P/M's house.

    Re: Guess what got here yesterday!

    As a Douglas collector I really like the looks of that particular colorset tartan---not the usual very dark Douglas. Need more details----what tartan mill, what weight, what kiltmaker, etc..., in addition to pictures with you in it and preferably out in the sunshine where we can get a true idea of the colors, since you feel that the pictures do not do the tartan justice.

    Congratulations on your acquisition, as well as surviving the jones.

    Looks great pleated to that stripe. I can't wait to get mine pleated the same way from USAK. Should be done soon.
