    Buy the best kilt that you can afford and talk directly to the maker, go for traditional style with the heaviest weight cloth that is available(usually these days 15/16 oz depending where the cloth comes from). Yes I know its a lot of money and you will hesitate to wear the kilt for anything less than a special occasion. Wrong! Wool is surprisingly tolerant to the rough and tumble of life, they have after all been worn in the muck and bullets of countless battles and scrub up remarkably well for a parade shortly after. Good luck.
