    The Top Apron and the Final Pleats, Do you think it fits?

    Recently I have received a Kilt by a reputable Highland outfitter. I will eventually do a more complete review which I am coordinating with some "bridal-wedding" review I am working on...

    So the kilt is self-colored black 16oz 8rds. Custom sewn to my measurements.

    I will save my own comments till later but I am interested in the community's opinion on the sewn fit of this kilt.

    Please look closely at the relationship of the Top Apron and the Final Pleats meeting its edge.

    I am wearing it at it's tightest position on the straps in the pictures with the White wall.

    I am Wearing it on the last position on the Red wall pictures.

    So with further ado some photos.















    Fyi: Have not been out in this Kilt yet, though I do seem to be wearing matching Hose Tops and Sweater... they are helpful in the cold rain we are getting at the moment even with pants on.


    This kilt was built to my measurements and I have some misgivings about the pleats and front apron connection.

    What say you all?
