Just a couple of comments about the black heavyweight stillwater I have. (black on black)

Good value for the money. However I think heavyweight is a slight overstatement... Something you'll notice if you own a traditional heavyweight handsewn. The selvedge is uneven. It comes with decent leather straps but with cheap buckles. The rise area was left bulky.

That said... with a bit of touch up work, it's quite acceptable as a non-formal kilt. Good ka-boom for the ka-ching!

yeah, my wife ok'd it for me too, her words were " if you want "another one" then go ahead a get it " ..she's a german girl, and this is all new to her..anyway i noticed that the stillwaters are a set lenght at 24 inches.. now i have a concern about them fitting well, as im a taller guy at 6 foot 4 and 300 pounds. im comfortable wearing my kilt the top edge at my belly button, not down on my hips..

Had you considered R-Kilts or one of the other contemporaries?
