Not having either cloth made into kilt I cant speak for the quality of feel of it. You likely comparing "Apples to apples" and will win either way. My deciding factor would only be supporting a weaver like DC Dalgliesh which is a smaller mill that in my mind needs support to maintain the old traditional ways. With the loss of so many fabric mills around the world I feel supporting them wins with me. Both companies would give you superior fabric but Id send my money to DC Dalgliesh if it were me spending it.
