    I'm curious about the weight of the kilt you just ordered



    I know that Rocky, Pete, and a lot of our other Kilt Makers have been hunting for true 16 oz PV tartan. Is this what the Kilted Nation advertise it as? Do they note where the fabric is from?

    Look forward to the pictures of your new kilt.

    Cheers

    Thanks. I wasn't sure where to post. It's 16oz. I picked up a black casual 16oz poly-vic from TKN awhile ago and it's really nice. Good value. Nice heavy feel to it.
    I like a nice short parade that ends at a bar.

    TNK v. SWK?

    The Hamilton Gray looks good; congrats!

    Just out of curiousity, do you have any basis for comparison between the black TNK 16oz. PV and SWK's heavy black "shadow tartan"? I'm thinking about adding a "casual" kilt to my warddrobe -- preferring to keep my Geoffrey (Tailor) for special occasions -- and these look reasonable for the task: something that will look good, but not break the bank. (I figure ~$100 is about what I could justify spending on something of the sort.)

    Cajunscot recommended USA Kilts, too, but they're more than I'd like to spend....

    As for flashes, would this work? http://giftshop.scottishtartans.org/garters.html

    Thanks for the info on the site. I really like the 16oz PV Kilts from TKN. It came out to about 114.00 with shipping. I should have it in 2-3 days. I have a solid black one and if they ever do a Davidson i'll be picking that up.
