Greetings all...
As happens from time to time with kilt devotees, the urge to splurge hit me once again last weekend and I placed an order for an 8 yard worsted wool kilt in the Maple Leaf tartan from these fine people:

I am, however, having some second thoughts about this and thought I should seek some input from the Xmarks pool of experts. My concern is that the chosen fabric is only available in 11oz. and I've never worn wool this light. Will the garment hang properly? While there is still time, should I perhaps choose a different tartan... one that is available in 13oz. or better?

I've oft admired both Stewart black and Braveheart Warrior tartans but I don't seem to be able to find information on them. Are either of them considered "open"? Perhaps my concerns are unfounded. Any and all advice here is much appreciated.

Cheers!
