Thanks everybody! Almost right after I made the comment about going with Kiltstore, I read their forum. They seem like a good company, but the whole shipping thing scares me. I spent a few hours here yesterday(made my shift go by quick). Ill keep poking around.

And another warm (??) welcome from Snellville Georgia. You might consider a couple of other companies for your first kilt as well. Do a search on USA kilts and Matt Newsome Box Pleats....
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

Welcome to a great group of wonderful people.
You're right, this man has got to get into a kilt. We can't have him running around showing off his bare parts. It just wouldn't be proper.

 to the Forum, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. If you look into a kiltmaker in the States at least you will not be paying the kind of duty you have to from overseas.

Kiltstore IS a good company, and Nick is a class act, as well as being a Governor of the Scottish Tartans Authority, so you can buy from them with confidence. I have NO complaints about the kilt I bought, I was just ignorant at the time of the Fedex Customs bogeyman. Any kilt purchased from Scotland runs the risk of incurring duties, but shipment by Fedex assures you will be assessed. If you take advantage of Kiltstore's free shipping it comes surface mail (read slow mail) but has a much better chance of arriving w/o all the customs baggage.
