For the last five years, I've been wearing a Pride of Scotland - Modern tank (just learned that term tonight...thanks XMTS)...wearing it two to three times per year. I love my kilt and have started experimenting wearing it with different upper garments to "get away" from the traditional look with the fly plaid, gillies, etc.

As my wife and I tend to be traditionalists, I'd like to pick up another tank. Here's the dilemma...my clan tartan (Elliot) seems difficult to find.

Another thing I'm running into is the weight. I know the heavier the weight, the more pleats...I think? Also, the length...do I measure my inseam to just above my knees?

Thanks for any and all help with this...especially in finding the tartan.
