    Currently have 8 (UK's) in my posession.

    1 ordered and paid for (Freedom Kilt)
    1 ordered (Freedom Kilt)
    1 denim or hemp RK in discussions
    1 leather RK in discussions
    1 AK waiting to be ordered as soon as they finalize the design.

    But for the purpose of the poll, I put down 2-10

    soon to be twelve and then I STOP.
    It would take a lot of willpower, and maybe even need therapy, to stop acquiring kilts.

    This is a topic which comes up regularly but its always interesting to read an update on how x-markers collections are progressing. Currently I have 18, with another 2 on order.

    From looking at all these posts, I am content to know that the artform of the kilt will not vanish. Half of us have closets that are small museums~!

    I started collecting kilts when I was 19 and now I am 21. I have a headstart and will probably not be able to fight this addiction. >_>

    My 7 kilts :

    Sport Kilt Black Watch (from before they offered belt closures, lol.)
    Scottish import from Ebay, Napier Modern
    Mackenzie What Price Glory WWI era kilt. My best investment ever.
    Phillabeg from Celtic Croft
    phillabeg from fabric from an antique store
    Campbell Argyll Weathered great kilt
    a fashion tartan great kilt

    Well Roan, you are off to a good start - of which I am envious! Between the ages of 14 and 62 I never had more than one kilt at a time so, in the last nine years I have acquired 80 kilts. Just think how many that could have been had I started as you have done, at the age of 19, instead of waiting until I was 62!!

    Maintain the enthusiasm, my friend.

    I can identify. In April I was wanting to get out of trousers. Most of my time is spent doing things you would not wear a kilt to do.

    The only wool kilts I have are from SWK. Just got my FK. thinking about where the next one will be made. So many great kiltmakers, so little cash to spare.

    need one more FK, one hemp, and at least one PV before I start thinking about that TANK.

    Started with a U.K.. I like it fine but after experiencing made to measure prolly won't bother them for a while.

    For off the peg, find swk hard to beat. Have six of theirs that I can wear to work, brush the concrete dust off of them, wash them and do it again.

    I made five casual kilts, four for myself. So I went from O to 14 in one summer. Now that my common North American Rumpus Maximus is covered, It's time to concentrate on quality kilts from skilled makers and refining my own skills.

    The count is now at 15.

    I stopped at 12, for a while, thinking it was a good number.
    I guess it is a good number, but perhaps for something else . . .

    It's a good number for doughnuts, or eggs.
