Trigger Pulled, Engage Jonesing
Well today I pulled the trigger on a my second Kilt.
and I'm skipping the Couple of SWK Thriftys, then going to getting a few SWK standards, then The SWK Heavyweight. I'm gong Straight to the Heavyweight.
Black Shadow Tartan. Now you might say heck that will be a short jones but alas being a relatively short person 24" is to long for me so I'm ordering it Custom at 22" so will have to wait about a month or two.
I have resisted checking the mail today but tomorrow I might not be so lucky.....

Good luck!
The day is not over yet. The temptation to check the mail may be too great before the day it out

You can always get the 24", turn up the bottom and blind hem it. I did that with my Heavyweight and it looks fine. Several others have done the same.

It's been at the bottom of the page for quite a while, in the fine print, but requires a 1-3 month wait, if I remember right....

You'll like that kilt. Have one myself. Very versatile, and modern. Can be worn with a lot of different looks. If it wasn't a custom job, you probably would have had it in your hands by now. Jerry can ship a kilt faster than you can order it.

It will be worth the wait. Luckily, I can wear the 24" without a problem - just wear it a tad higher than normal. I have two heavyweights (Black Watch and Saffron shadow) and a Thrifty that I can't wear any more because I've shrunk (thankfully). SWK is always a good value for the money.

Congrats! With a StillWater, you should be receiving the kilt in about 93 minutes!
