Thanks Matt. Got my kilt early this morning. Absolutely a fabulous kilt. It was the Ancient after all. My kilt came with ten pleats, so I guess mine is mid way within the norm. Will have to take photos and post them.
This is my first kilt so it is hard to make a comparison, but from the looks of it, it was done extremely well. I like it. I've spent the morning looking for the things I purchased to go with it. Having a hard time finding them, so photos may be sans some of the appropriate things.
I'm embarrassed to admit, initially I was a bit puzzled how to put the kilt on. Being a blue jean kind of a fellow, I'm used to pulling them up and just buttoning them closed. With the discussions I've been exposed to on this site, I was able to quickly remedy that situation though.
I'm already thinking about my next kilt - either from the tartan of the Grey/Gray Clan or the weathered Lamont from Lockcarron Mill. Then again maybe the tartan of the US Army. This might be harder to decide that I thought. One thing for sure - I'm sold on the 16 oz wool cloth.
