I have never had a problem with wind that actually became a problem. It has felt like the pleats would be blown around before but they stayed in place.

Tempurature wise it is cooler than my SWK standard which is 8 yards I think (I think I measured it at 7.3 yards or something but that is not too accurate because of of the pleats). Walking to the car from the pub the other night in portland I was somewhat cold. I had soccer socks, the kilt, under shirt, over shirt, and a leather coat on and my legs were chilly. Tempurature was probably around the high 30s.
