Traditional-looking in leather ???

[CameronTaylor]

I just got around to looking at UnionKilts. $480. -ish isn't bad if they'll do one without the cargo pockets ...


CT - I have keys and money, no cargo for my pockets. :razz:

"21st Century Kilts" (TFCK) is THE place if you want a traditional-style kilt in real leather -they also do a very passable imitation leather).

Here are front and back photos of my TFCK leather kilt:




I also have excellent leather kilts from "R-Kilts", "Union Kilts" and "Utilikilts" but, whilst superb garments in their own right, they are not traditionally styled - the TFCK one is.

Although the photos show me wearing it casually, I have worn the TFCK with my grey Argyll jacket, shirt and Gunn tartan tie, and black leather accessories (sporran, belt and shoes), but I don't have photos. (That's not like me, at all!!)

This kilt is wonderously heavy (it's a six-yarder, not eight) and, yes, it was expensive, very expensive, but (to me) worth every penny.

[Sorry, I'm under Dr's orders and shouldn't be here ....... but, I could not help myself taking a quick 'lurk'!]

Yes, wonderously good looking kilt but ouch, as you said very expensive.
If that kind of money becomes available I'll definitely take your advice on it.

We can do you one without the cargo pockets if you require no problem at a cost of £199 approximately $338 US.

I like the unfussy version too. I'll stop by next time I'm in Seattle and take a look at them in person (saw them from the train down from Van but alas, no car to get around town)


CT - and Neo is right down the road, ah for the good old days when I'd cover 3000 miles a trip without batting an eye ...
