That's awesome Jim!

I have 5 kilts and one is the US Army tartan. In the spirit of reciprocity, I'll post some pics just to keep the thread goin'.

AS fate would have it, we had a Ren Festival here in Wichita TODAY! I thought it was a good opportunity to break out my ARMY kilt and challenge your evil NAVY kilt!

Notice the flags in the background! It was WINDY! Very interesting situation when your goin' 'authentic'!

BTW, I wore the little wharny you made for me as a sgian dubh (did I spell that right?).

Oh what the heck...

Here's another kilt shot at the '06 rally in Fayetteville, Arkansas. This one's brown duck with hammer loops and tool pockets. It's a 'Workman' from Utilikilt.


I just may wear a kilt to Blade!

Cool Andy,

My wife says if I start wearing a kilt away from the fairs I have to get a set of boots, biker or combat. She says that the rules.

As for going regimental, not this little grey duck. I have my rubber ducky boxers under that in case of wind or the ever curious ladies who have to check.

As for Army vs. Navy I just like to point out that we are three games a head & have won the last 6.



Jim

Kilt is the way to go.

Though maybe not while forging... at least not with a treadle hammer.
