    That's assuming he comes close to fitting the Stillwater body ideal. Are you at least a 23-25-inch length, Heath? Give Jerry a call at Stillwater and talk to him about sizing.

    Also, don't forget Rocky at USA kilts recently posted that he has a lot of stock in his off-the-rack casuals in most waist sizes right now and will ship immediately if ordered by Thursday. After that he's packing it all up for a big festival.

    Oh well, late again, as usual. Next time the kids can get their OWN damn supper!

    thanks for the replies fellas! the USAK, and the Stillwater were 2 that i was considering already. i have an e-mail in to rocky about whether or not my tartan is available to him in the materials he uses for the casual or not. that will be a big deciding factor. that and the custom fit.

    Go here to see the tartans availabe for Rocky's casuals. He carries a lot of those, but if there's one there he doesn't show on his sight, he may do a special deal for ya. Good luck.

    Oh, and he makes the casuals from the "Balmoral 11oz Poly/Viscose Tartan collection" only.

    For some reason all I could think of were Stillwater and USAKs. Now I remember one more- Buzz Kidders. They're canvas and not tartan.
