My leather kilts weigh about six pounds....but can't get them in tartan without some tedious painting.

I guess that I'm just not getting the object of your desire here...
...are you looking for a very heavy kilt with the intention that it will keep you warm or are you asking whether or not that heavier weight stuff is too heavy to make a kilt out of?

On a serious note, I personally can't wear anything heavier than a 16 ounce material. 22 oz sounds like 5 yards of pure hell to me. If you do get something made from that heavy material, please post a review- I'd be very interested to read it/.

It's 8 yards not 5. Perfect for a Chicago winter (thought I've worn it in summer too).
