A few weeks ago, whilst the Highland Granite grey tartan was being discussed, I posted a photo of the new grey tartan from Geoffrey (Tailor) of Edinburgh and explained that I'd been given the chance of having the first kilt to be tailored in it. Well, I collected that kilt from Howie on Saturday and it is amazing!

It is a true 'traditional' 8 yard kilt with the 2" rise; is in 16oz purest woollen tartan and I requested that it be pleated to the stripe.

Here are a few of the first photos I have managed to take of it:






I think you'll agree that the pleating is particularly effective, and beautifully executed.
