Hmmmm that might give me an excuse to get the blackthorn I've been looking at from Cold Steel:

I just can't get it through my head that a solid-color kilt would suit me. It could lead to dancing.

The cold steel manufactured version above would be low maintenance and all, but ye cannot beat the real thing! Ebay has many vendors in the North of Ireland and the Republic that would provide you a good quality, natural, Shillelagh/Bata. Bidding can get a wee bit competitive though....'Ballymaglin' is a quality vendor as is '8181stewart'.
Slainte.

Of the Raptors, I'm not such a fan ![Hide](http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/images/smilies/hide.gif) I do, however, have a green tee shirt with Father Jack (from the Father Ted tv show)... I'll try it out when I get my kilt back from being hemmed.
Yes! I love the sporran nation stuff, but I'm still working up the guts to pay that much!
I'll hopefully get pics asap... and I'm planning to wear it out and about with thick black hose sort of pushed down the leg and solid black Nike 'boot' hi-tops. I'll see when I'm putting it all on, though!
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

I own the black shadow-tartan kilt and love it for casual wear. I am in deep, deep discussion with myself about getting the saffron or green shadow tartan kilt from SWK. I might go with the green and get a saffron tank with a green jacket and caubeen to finish out the look.
Damn it, now I want more kilts. And jackets. And headwear. And hose...
I'll never be able to retire at this rate, but when I do, I'll look AMAZING!
