They are Steger Mukluks. Best boots in the world. More Native North American than Highland Celtic but worth every penny.

Miss you guys. Peace Brother, until waiting is filled.

You can do it standing up. Don't expect to get any resemblance to nice looking pleats, but you can get 15' of fabric to fit around 34" of waist.

We're in AK. We shut down during Covid and haven't really opened fully again. I just do one off pieces on commission now.

@ that’s to bad but i understand. I’m just looking for a knife sheath and a few other things and came across your channel and really liked your work.

@tone5158 what knife?

@@tone5158 the biggest problem with long distance sheath making is you need the knife to mold the sheath. I've bought quite a few knives over the years because of this. Some have been good choices.

Very glad to hear my video helped create another convert. I wear this one so much more than my others, I have 13 total. It's so versatile and comfortable. Enjoy your journey. Drop a comment after you get yours and let me know how you like it.

Yup, right where mine broke, 2" from the handle. I'll check out the Corona, thanks.

One of my favorite places.

There is one yellow line at the bottom of the fold. This shows on the outside of the pleat (if I do it right). So I am folding 2 squares.

Thank you 👍

You said it's 15 feet long, how wide is it?

@@josephbennett7057 about 60"

@@northwindhomestead907 thank you for your reply.

@@Leaves.and.Legends that's a USA Kilts top stitch premiere kilt. It wears so much better than all my less spendy Kilts. They did a great job on that one.

@northwindhomestead907 ive got a box pleated campbell kilt from them. But the crisp and clean knife pleats look snazzy. I think I'm going less dress and more utility for my next kilt. Need to bulk up my numbers. One expensive kilt means I never wear it wearas if I have a dozen good kilts I can be sure to wear a kilt sometimes.

@@Leaves.and.Legends Truth. I bought a casual kilt from them and wear it very often. More than even my 5 yard one. The DNKE utility gets worn the most, but not out in town hardly ever. It's my yard kilt. Do need to sell it and get a smaller size.

@northwindhomestead907 lucky you! It's not lucky really it's the hard work. I'm needing to slim up to fit mine. I'm bulky these days again.

@@Leaves.and.Legends Thanks. I wear it more often than all my other kilts.

Careful, it can become addictive very quick.

Yeah. Saw that too.

Truth

It's the garment I wear most often. Subscribe and check out my other videos about it.

Great kilts are the best.

Never been a big fan. Perhaps I should give it another try.

Have you found Tom yet? He has some great videos on this subject. youtube.com/@fandabidozi?si=bDA0qEXfuyKDh3Nc

He's in Alaska rn

Hi

Hi

No snakes up here, execpt for the corn snake in our house.

I make those in house at NorthwindLeather@gmail because I couldn't find one anywhere.

The scottish were very fond of selling their plaid to anyone who had coin. So buying a kilt wearing kilts ir acceptable as long as you're not parading around like you're a scotsman mocking them, then you'll be accepted into the kilted clann, lol.

These guys have so much awesome stuff. Check them out. countycomm.com/collections/view-all-storage-products/products/industrial-strength-survival-food-grade-tins Sorry about the wallet, I've been through what your going to experience.

@@northwindhomestead907 much appreciated!

@@christopherpike8269 this is the way.

@@northwindhomestead907 this is the way…

I'll have to give that a try.

Thank you! Cheers!

Went to the concert. Amazing!!!

Yes it is.

Ells?

@@northwindhomestead907 18" a half yard

Conventionally the length between the point of your elbow, arm crooked to form an 'L", and the first knuckle of your middle finger.

@@larry6747 similar to a cubit

Steger Mukluks.

Amazingly comfortable.

Thank you so much

Thanks. It's my happy place.

It's from Townsend. Their 18th century linen work shirt.

It's grown since then too.

@@northwindhomestead907 Very, very cool.

Also… EDC sporran is the best thing I’ve heard all year. I would love the details on that for my own highland wear.

I think it's 5 yards. Or close to it. Right about 15 feet, whatever that is in meters.

Thanks, I made it myself. I have been working on a how to video for it, still looking for a client to customize it for.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I had a great time making it.

I made it. Couldn't find anything online to fit my needs.

Not on the Facecrook.

I do lurk the r/kilts subreddit

Thanks.

Very welcome. Thanks for watching.

Thanks.

I had a shorter one but right before filming that scene I realized I lost it. This piece was in my scrap bin and I was to task focused to cut it.

@@northwindhomestead907 Gotcha. I'm just trying to figure out what I have to work with when my great kilt arrives. I ordered one a couple of days ago, along with a plaid brooch and flashes, and I'm just doing all the research I can on various ways to wear it.

Oooooooo. I remember that anticipation. What tartan did you get? Where did you get it? I didn't go with flashes for the GK, I've been using garter ties. I felt they might be a bit more period appropriate. However, after using them for a while I really appreciate the ability to make them a tight or loose as desired. Have fun learning. I have photos of the first time I put the GK on. It was so bad. The more you wear it the verte it'll look. Thanks for watching.

Looking back at your original comment about the boot lace I thought of something. The piece of leather in using is unfinished and rough. The friction from leather in this condition helps hold the knot without having to tighten it aggressively. Not sure what boot lace you have but it might not offer this advantage. Leather cord like I'm using is super cheap. You can find it at Tandy leather or on Amazon. The boot lace might work fine or it might not, only experimentation will tell.

@@northwindhomestead907 Cheers! Yeah, I might buy some garter ties for a Highland wedding if my eventual bride approves it. I realise it's a bit anachronistic, but I got one from Scottish Kilt Shop (the only site I can really afford) in Clan Maxwell because my mum's family is a sept of theirs. I trust SKS's great kilts more than their modern kilts because I can pleat it myself with no sewing.

God bless, John Denver. Rest in Peace, Brother.

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I appreciate your feedback. Be well, Andre.

That was a long time ago. Now my teenager only interacts when $ is required.
