I would hesitate to call the WPG kilts "regimental weight".
Though admittedly my experience was with just one kilt.
The fabric had no resemblance whatsoever to any kilting fabric of any weight. Lightweight 9oz UK-woven tartan has more similarity to regimental weight tartan than the strange flimsy insubstantial stuff my WPG kilt was made from. Oh yes it was sold as "regimental weight".
Also the fabric had a strange waxy feel to it.
If you want a regimental weight kilt I recommend getting the extremely nice 18oz regimental tartan from House Of Edgar. This has a distinctive slightly fuzzy blanketlike surface quite unlike civilian tartan.
