Dale Seago reviews a Stillwater Kilt

Dale Seago reviews the Nightstalker Tartan from Stillwater Kilts in a post on Sword Forum International:

...over the last few years I've become fairly experienced with the old-style feileadh mor or belted plaid; the feileadh beag; 1790s-style early box-pleated kilt; modern "tailored" wool kilt; and canvas casual kilts. I regard the kilt as clothing rather than costume, and wear one pretty often. In fact, a Bujinkan black belt from Ireland who trained in my dojo here for about a year until he picked up another job back home once commented to me that, having been to Scotland several times, he'd noticed over there that there always seemed to be something special or a bit "in your face" in the way Scots wear their kilts -- in other words, it always seemed to be "making a statement" of some sort -- but that with me the "feeling" he got was that it was "just clothing".
