    My Campbell Argyle from Geoffrey Tailor was well worth the price. I agree that no kilt swings like a full, heavy, "whole-nine-yards" kilt.

    I remember the reactions at the games when the first casual kilts hit the market. Many talked (often not very discretely) about these guys wearing their kilts too low. ot about the way they swing. (or didn't)

    I remember my brother calling some poor fellow's kilt a "McRoebucks".

    For the record, he now wears his utilikilt with a fair amount of regularity.

    I own a few "plastic" kilts, and they do have their place. Noting will ever compare to the Fine tailored woolens though.

    My 8-yard Lockhart by Matt Newsome is a thing of beauty and serves my needs very well.

    Mine is an 8 yard knife pleated MacDoanld of the Isle Hunting ancient colours from marton mills jura range 16oz from scottishkilts.net and it is a thing of rare beauty. My dad's is an 8yd MacDonald modern lochcarron 13oz form Lawries now Hector Russell Glasgow. I think that mine looks and swings better being heavier but that is my opinion.
