I got alook at that Irish Nat. at the SF Bay Area kilt night lat night, andthese 2006's are NICE looking kilts. Much nicer than my 2005. The sewn-down fell makes a huge difference.
Haven't mentioned it before but I did get a Hunting McLeod a couple of weeks ago and it's really great...very wooly for a synthetic: I saw a post where someone with a new SWK was being asked if it's wool by "civilians" only to tell them that it is acrylic...I can understand their thinking that it's wool.
Anyway, feels great, fits well but I'm going to find someone (or do it myself) to hem it up an inch/inch and a half...I feel like I'm wearing them on the bottom of my rib cage and that I have to slide them down just a little bit. Hate to lose the selvedge but it's got to be done.
Congrats to Jerry at Stillwater for another great line of products.
I told my regional chieftan about them and now he's looking into them as an alternative to the wool kilts. It's a long story but our tartan is privately held and the thread count is a closely guarded secret.(sort of).But the chief is getting reamed so no new kilts for clan cian for a while.
