    LOL, my Ireland's National Casual kilt also came in this week (although I waited several weeks for mine). I too was surprised by how orange those stripes are; in all the photos I'd seen it looked yellow. Anyway, I am absolutely thrilled with it. Here's a pic of it. Sorry for the bad pic, my wife isn't around to take it for me.



    Rocky and Kelly did a great job! I even wore it to work today.

    I couldn't wait . . . I paid the rush fee Should be here in about a week

    I love the IN tartan. I recognized the colours as being from that beautiful banner, the Republic flag, and just had to have it. Maybe I can find a tie in the IN tartan.

    Necktie??

    Being a Californian you'll NEED a baja in the Ireland's National tartan too

    They're from Creative Irish Gifts think its www.creativeirishgifts.com if I'm wrong you can google it up.



    Ignore the choice of kilt hose that day...

    The cap is from the same place.

    Ron...

    Not to be a stickler, but to EDUCATE... The tartan baja you have is the Irish National tartan, not the IRELAND'S national tartan... it wouldn't match the kilt.

    Nothing AGAINST it... it looks like a VERY nice Baja if you're looking for one, just not matching. That's all.

    Dang...shows how well my memory is holding up when sick, let alone well...will have to dig the baja out of summer storage and take a look at it next to the kilt.

    I did know that it wouldn't be right to wear the kilt and the baja at the same time - ....or, hmmmm, maybe...just maybe....Mardi Gras....? Is there an Irish Mardi Gras somewhere....

    Supposed to rain in Vegas...would they welcome me or throw me out of the Irish pub coming in dressed in both? Boggles the mind.

    Rocky, my friend....take your time and do good work, but know that I scored kilt pins for them new tartans down at the Flagstaff Highland games and I'm endeavoring not to jones too much....only been a few weeks and I don't wanna overdose on your most addictive kilts.
