Just a follow up after my first day wearing this kilt. It is really quite nice when compared to the SWK standard or AK. Much heavier weight, nicely stitched, good swish.

The same seller, emeraldtartans, on eBay also has some other kilts listed, so I sent my wife a link to one in the Heritage of Scotland tartan (which she did NOT like) which she countered with one in the Pride of Scotland tartan. I have been trading some emails with the seller, thanks for the quick shipping, etc., and mentioned that I was possibly interested in the Pride of Scotland tartan. He said to wait for a few weeks as the one he currently has listed is lighter weight than the one I already bought from him, and he will be getting in the Pride of Scotland in 16oz PV soon. So, I will say again that I am pleased with this purchase and the seller and would encourage others to check him out, but watch the kilt listing to see if it is the 16oz PV. And BTW, he will be on holiday, starting in the next day or so, and not back until the first of December (miscellaneous info picked up during emails with him).

Ron, I did ask where they were made in my last email to him, but have not heard back and he may already be on holiday.
