Stillwater, how heavy is there heavyweight?

[Nighthawk]

This makes it clear, very clear!

My 8yrd 16oz weighs 3.2 pounds and a SWK solid color would be 2.5 pounds as it is only 6yrds in fabric.

So I conclude that it is indeed 13oz wool they use and it's like a 5yrd kilt with a little extra oomph. It would be almost 2/3 a pound lighter (which is well over a Kilo in the eurozone)...that's a lot!

Most 5 yrd casual kilts from Scotland start are about $350, so really they are a bargain.

I'll chime in on this part. They most certainly are a bargain, and were I not saving money for a vacation, I would buy one of the green heavies. I love my Nightstalker and saffron. Not so much the 2 acrylics that I have. I don't like acrylic. But the woolies- man, those things are killer for the price!!
