The Flashes of Our Blue Jewel

 

Bias cut to the Dark Void stripe — these flashes continue the Earthrise motion from your kilt pleats down to your hose. Made from the exact same 16oz Marton Mills wool with matching garter straps.

Part of the original 2023 numbered production — supplied only with your Earthrise kilt.





Why Bias Cut to the Dark Void?

 

I cut these on the bias to the black military stripe so Earthrise motion flows seamlessly from kilt to flashes — blues rising against space-black as you walk.

• Traditional garter straps included
