Which is best kilt for daily/driving wear

[Tobus]

Out of curiosity, what is less comfortable about sitting on more fabric? Generally everywhere I go and sit, it seems more comfortable to sit on more fabric. It's more padding, for starters. And down here in Texas in summer, wearing thin fabrics can cause you to burn your bum if you sit on a metal bench (or touch the metal seat belt buckle as you get in the car). So I always find more fabric to be more comfortable.

I'm not getting any more or less coverage with either style of kilt. Both come down the same length on my legs and cover the same amount of skin.

But with the 8 yard kilt I'm sitting on layer upon layer of pleats and it just feels like I'm sitting on a lumpy woolen seat cushion. :-) With a four yard kilt there is less overlapping of the pleats and it just feels smoother and less bulky for me to be sitting on.

Yeah. What Matt said.
