    Congrats on the first kilt!

    No jonesing sympathy from me though, waited 90 days for my first kilt.

    The approved way of easing the kilt jones is to go ahead and buy more kilts or accessories. You know you'll want/need them anyway.

    Congrats! I'm sure the arrival will be worth the wait.

    I've already got the next two picked out. Just gotta wait for the wallet to catch up.

    Unfortunately, that may be the most common statement on this forum.

    Wow! You went whole hog! Well you won't have to wait long for the stuff from SWK. Pretty soon Jerry will get stuff to you before you order it.

    Well, with all the talk of how fast SWK is, I'm hoping there's a package waiting for me when I get home today. Maybe even two packages. I so can't wait!

    I want to see pictures if possible. I've been tossing around the idea of getting a leatherneck, but I really want to see how they look on a person before I decide. Congrats on your first purchase by the way- you will enjoy the comfort, for sure. You should get a wool one next. I personally like them a lot more than the acrylic.

    Here are some pics of the kilt:

    I will eventually get a tank but I'm in the process of losing around 50 lbs, so I'll wait until that happens before I drop too much money on kilts.
