Kurteckelman, welcome! Where in IL do you hail from? We are really hurting for Chicago members.

Anyway, if you want a freat kilt for a good price, USAKilts is the way to go. SWK's are nice, but once you have worn the kilt for a while, you will appreciate the workmanship in a USAK, and others. Nothing against SWK's (really Jerry), it was my first kilt, but everything has its place. And for me SWK's are a good entry level kilt.
