    WPG = What Price Glory. The company sells a lot of replica (and some original) WWI and WWII militaria... both American and Brit. WPG also has replica regimental kilts... probably WWI era replicas... very heavy wool, and quite accurate from what people say. Just about everyone who owns one is happy with it. I wanted to get one for the winter, or anytime it is cool enough to warrant that heavy of a garment. If interested, the website is www.whatpriceglory.com. To find hte kilts, you'll go to the Brit. section, and then to the Scottish list... Gordon, BW, Cameron, and Seaforth (MacKenzie tartan?) are the current kilts. There are a number of other accessories that one might or might not want from WPG...
    I am also eyeballing one of the WWI cutaway jackets to wear with my kilts, especially when things get a little cooler up here.

    Just from the photos, the finish on the wool looked course and prickly. I had been looking quite a while ago and then backed off in favour of having a kilt made in Scotland instead.
