    I'm so ashamed! But at least I'm in good company with my madness and addictions. The best part is, I look good doing it. Yeah, I still have a few other tartans I would like to have, but I'm content for now....maybe ;)

    Admitting that you have a problem is the first step.

    I think someone had posted a 12 step program here somewhere that went something like:

    1. Buy Kilt
    2. Buy Hose
    3. Buy Sporran
    4. Buy Belt
    5. Buy Brogues
    6. Buy Skian Dhu
    7. Buy Argyll jacket
    8. Add additional accessories here...

    12 Repeat as necessary

    Staticsan, I was going to say that you will probably have the kilt by tomorrow when I realized you live in Australia. I normally get shipments from SWK within two-three days. My guess is that it will take a bit longer to arrive down under.

I very nearly gave up on wool, leaning towards one of Rocky's PV casuals, and then I remembered StillWater...

    Well,whaddya know, they have a Shadow Tartan in wool in my size!

    Interesting that the completed order page includes the words "Order shipped"...

    Cost or time?

    The cost was something like USD40, which I'm tempted to find a feedback form and say "I'm happy for less than first class international postage if it's less than half the cost..."

    Time was reported as something like a week. Still, that's pretty good from the US. It's normally like 2 weeks.

    Even with Jerry's legendary Intercity Ballistic Delivery rockets, we are talking at about the furthest point on earth from his warehouse in Minnesota. It should be going through customs in LA about now.....

    The Jones will not be very bad at all.

    Andy,
    Whats to be ashamed of? You got bit by the kilt bug, and it's venom has spread through your body and infected your mind, just don't try and fight it, it's unbeatable, just get a bigger closet and you'll be happy.

    Cheers,

    Brian

    Forgive me for resurrecting a old thread... but it's here! Arrived yesterday. That would be ...hmmm... two weeks.

    The shadow tartan is most interesting. It's solid black normally, but then the light hits it just right...

    However, I did make the mistake of ordering a sporran without realizing I need a way to hang it about me.
