On the *tropical* kilt, the pleats are about 3/4". not much swing...
I know the pleats on the SWK is about 3" but the acrylic fabric is bit scary...
How is the feel different from wool ??? Or do we feel it at all ???

I know some of you guys own a SWK, how does it differ from a tank???

Thanks
SWK is simply the best in affordable kilts by my opinion.
The heavy weight swk (black watch) is 16oz wool, so if that isnt a tank then i cant tell you the difference between it and a tank. I love the kilt i bought from SWK. If you can't afford a handsewn from Barb or Kathy, buy a SWK. Thats my opinion.
