I love my wool kilts. Even in 110 degree F Oklahoma summer. I wondered the same about PV (Note Steve's caution above) and got a great deal on a PV so jumped at it. Now, I prefer to feel.a little weight from the kilt and PV is too light for my liking. So, I have a PV kilt hanging in my closet that never gets worn. (Sadly not your size). I will wear it for an upcoming Warrrior Dash and otherwise keep it handy in case a friend of mine desires to borrow a kilt.

I don't think you are being a snob if you prefer wool. We all have prefrences.
