My standard arrived yesterday afternoon, and last night I wore it out. It fits wonderfully, and the acrylic is surprisingly wool-like. I got the velcro belt and Jerry's finest, cheapest sporran to go along with it. It was a pleasant surprise to find that Jerry had thrown in some tartan flashes as well at no cost. Thanks, Jerry.
The kilt has a nice weight to it, but is definitely cool to wear. If I was wearing that much 16 oz. wool I would probably have very sweaty legs. There's a lovely image for you all.
I look forward to posting some pics when I get a few. The kilt was a huge hit at the Chicago Beer Society meeting. Nothing like homebrew and kilts.
It's quite a change from my UK as it sits up higher (traditional vs. contemporary I guess), but I love it.
