    Very Sharp indeed! Bravo!
    Forgive my ignorance but I've been seeing quite a bit about the Saffron color kilt and it being Irish... what is the meaning or significance please.

    Saffron is the traditional color of some ancient Irish clothing. The saffron kilt is just a nod to that tradition....plus it looks great with a green doublet!

    Indeed, the saffron kilt does go exceptionally well with the green doublet!

    You make a great first impression, there! (And the second impression's not bad, either! )

    I could not agree more.
    I have not been a huge fan of the saffron kilt but
    with that green doublet it looks really sharp.

    I read (not too long ago) that women don't wear the saffron... any reason?
    It is just a delightful color and it looks so grand!

    I did find this link but I guess I should move the topic to another thread as this one is about how amazing beloitpiper looks in his uniform and how wonderful it must have been to play at the state capital.
    Congratulations!

    I'll repeat this link in the new thread for follow-up.
