Well after 9 long days of waiting, my SWK Black Watch arrived!

Kudos to SWK - The construction is excellent and the fabric has a very nice feel, if a bit light. It's a fantastic looking kilt, and I'm quite pleased. The unfortunate bit is that I think I have to return it for a smaller size. It seems I must have overestimated my girth and it just barely fits on the tightest notch. This worries me a bit about the traditional wool kilt I have on order, as it was 46" waist as well. Anyways I thought the size was fine at first so I removed the stitches .. but after wearing it around I think it's definately too big, so I'll have to see about exchanging it.

It is definately a bit light - not quite as nice of a feel as the 16oz wool I have tried before, but it is very nice and aside from the size I'm very happy with it.

I also got the economy sporran .. and it's .. well it's an economy sporran. It's not bad and will do for now, but I will definately want to get something a bit nicer very soon.
