Not sure how I'd describe them, have the look of a hand sewn traditional wool kilt only made from PV and sewn by machine. For me the test is the pleatwork. You can see from the pics of the ones I have the pleatwork is perfect.

I sure wish that I could tell by the pics but strangely enough only about 1/4 of your pics come through and materialize and these are some of those that didn't make it.
The definition of 'semi-traditional' did not state how many yards were involved, whether eight or four or whatever. I have my reservations about kilts less than eight full yards and made of very light material.
Can anyone compare the PV thickness to a SWK standard without my having to send a SASE to get a swatch? Is it thicker, or thinner? I am already aware that it's a better material, I just have my concerns.
Chris.
