    Thumbs up

    Man, I was drooling over those when they appeared on the UK website, but its not in my budget right now. Is that the green one? It was my fave in the pics. Congrats (by which I mean you suck.) Nah, really congrats, looks great on you.

    Onion, UK sent them out to be tie-died. You can find the name of the shop on the UK website.

    Best regards,

    Now that really is different. How's your family taking to your conversion.

    I really like the fabric. Since it's cordoroy, do you have to iron it inside out?

    Oh, you wouldn't know....

    cacunn,
    Lol, no, there is no way that I could ever outdo Hamish, nor Riverkilt, nor many of the other members of this website.

    UmAnOnion,
    It was done post manufacture. It was sent out to TyeDye Everything in Idaho.

    Monkey@Arms,
    Well, almost. I also loved the one that was shown on the website, but it wasn't in my size. They checked around though, and found a regular tan corduroy in my size, and then I shipped it to Tyedye everything and they did the same process on it. Thanks!

    SFCRick, cessna152towser, andyfg, Coemgen,
    Thanks for the kind words.

    James MacMillan,
    Everyone in my family thinks it's great. I don't wear kilts all the time, but quite a fair amount of time. I still get some ribbing from friends and family at times, but they've always known that I'll march to the beat of my own drummer when I feel like it.

    Lol, no, I haven't ironed it. Actually, the corduroy does a pretty good job of not showing creases most of the time. Makes for an easy wear around kilt, especially if there's much driving involved. Usually just pull the pleats when it comes out of the wash, and let it hang dry (sometimes with clips) and they look fine again.



    I really like the corduroy kilts. They're not too warm, not too cold. Have a good weight to them to resist wind fly-away. And they're just really comfy. I'd say my cord kilts are in the top 3 for comfort.

    Thanks,
    Mike
