We've got a fairly hot day today in Mid-Missouri, 89 F and 45% humidity. Anyhow, today was my first chance to check out wearing a wool kilt on a hot day. I decided to wear my SWK Black wool kilt (13 oz & 7-8 yards), with kilt hose and flashes. I'm surprised. I walked about a mile in the park with alternating sunshine and shade, and although it was warm, in my opinion, the kilt was not as hot as wearing a pair of the cargo style shorts that I used to wear. There was some breeze which certainly helped, but I expected to be very hot - didn't happen.

We've got some 90 F days on the way starting tomorrow. I'll have to try my 16 oz, 5-yard Irish American. The advantages of wearing a kilt continue to amaze me.
