Hi Phil,

I DO know who Les Battersby is - just - but I did not know he has a snakeskin jacket. That sounds ghastly! Who on earth, could wear such a thing, apart from Mr. Battersby?!!! No, I fear "pulling" is but a very distant memory now - in fact, I don't think I remember how it's done, it was so long ago!

Thanks everyone for your comments and even compliments. I was particularly interested to see what your reactions were going to be, since this one IS rather different.

les calls his snake skin jacket, his pulling jacket.it's a nasty plastic snake skin jacket, and yes, no one but les battersby would wear one.
your kilt looks good, and is a very interesting concept.
please keep on posting about all your kilts, I find it very interesting.
we live vicariously through you, I only wish I could afford 1/2 the kilts you own. remember different is good

Photo #2 clearly shows that a kilt without a sporran is still a kilt!

Very classy kilt modelled by a classy guy!

I think it's a great looking kilt Ham! The idea seems a strange one, but the execution is breathtaking! Now, I hope my buddy wont wonder where his little boa went

Just plain jealous of your kilts!!!!

I'm going to have to go catch and Alligator, skin it, tan and salt the hide. Polish the leather....and find someone to make a kilt out of it!!!!

Even after all that work, I'll still be 63 kilts behind you!

Darn my luck!

Oh well, GREAT looking kilt....would go well with anything.

Nice job there Hamish!

What a Stunning Kilt!!! How are you going to top this one?

What kind of reaction do you get when you are out?

Do people stare at you more than usual?

I hope you don't run in to any PETA Member.

Definitely different. It's not what I would have pursued, but that's my tastes, not yours. That being said, it doesn't look bad, you obviously like it, and that's what counts. Personally, I think it's neat to see some experimentation in materials/designs that would inspire diversity... but that doesn't mean that I have to personally enjoy each variant. Congrats on your new acquisition, and your what... 4 others to come? Ha ha ha. Hey, I went a little spasmatic, and ordered a few in a row... I just haven't had as much time to acquire as many, as I am a bit of the younger variety.
I'll be hung up on that kilt though... it's just so odd in comparison to what you would "typically" see, but not in a bad way.
