I live in a hot dry windy area, only wear kilts and own from 16 oz wool thru 11 oz microfiber.
So long as I am wearing a sporran, I have never done the full Marilyn.
I water my front yard without sporran or kilt pin often. The only kilt that has done the full Marilyn is my Sport kilt Hiking kilt ( the 11 oz microfiber ) - in a 40 mph+ gust of wind.
I learned quick to put the sporran on or entertain the neighbors when the wind is up and gusting.
As far as coolness is concerned, other than the one using XMarks PV, the USAK PV Casuals are the coolest kilts I own. It is why I have 12 of these. The weave seems to breath well and still have enough weight to waggle quite well with the fewer, wider and shallower pleats of the Casual.
Thank you for giving me a heads up on the issues of light weight wool. I was thinking of going there.

Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.
