    Congratulations. That is a beautiful tartan. I know what you mean about that traditional high on the waist feel. In my case it's low on the waist SportKilts with belt loops and sewn down pleats vs high on the waist Stillwater Standards and Heavyweights. There is an extra special feeling with the high on the waist design. I would have to say I like the traditional design the best.

    Nice choice on the tartan buddy! That's not one that you see all the feakin' time!

    Welcome to the "educated" ones that have the luxury of actually having worn an honest traditional, and being able to intelligently compare them to other kilts. It's infuriating to try to discuss the difference with someone that has no clue about the difference, and insists that they know. Your input will be a welcome voice in this place!!!!! Good luck.

    Being the owner of several traditionals, I can say that there is indeed no comparison to anything else. :-D

    That's a very fine looking tartan and I bet the kilt looks great. I can't believe how little time it took for you to get it.

    If you don't mind my asking, how much was it?

    There's nothing like a handsewn traditional. The price is surpassed only by the quality. I'm sure you will get many years of enjoyment from your investment. I know that since I purchased my traditional my PV kilt has hardly seen the light of day. :-D

    I can tell how excited you are about the kilt. And 16 oz. sure will keep you warm in Port Moody. That colour sure will stand out, (nice).

    What is a casual kilt? How does it differ from traditional Scottish kilts? I apologies for my ignorance but I thought the there were ONLY Scottish kilts. Do you have any picture?
