It's your money, obviously, but I've fallen into the trap of the 'get it where it's in front of me,' and been sorry on quite a few things.
Shay, right on! I am actually very glad that I bought Barb's book and read it. I feel like I have a much better understanding of how a quality kilt should be made and can evaluate is subjectively. I have already done that on the three I own right now. The SK (at least their off the rack) kilts are strictly for knocking around. It was the first one I got and wore in public because I did not know any better, but now I only wear it for daily activities that might mess up the 2 SW. My SW standard is a little better, but not much, and I love my SW HW. However, that may well change once I get my semi-trad from Rocky. I will also be doing the math when I visit the store at Epcot. One kilt now, or possibly 2-3 if I wait and order from someone here. Got to make sure that "instant gratification" urge is not followed in 2-3 weeks by the "what was I thinking" regrets.
