I FINALLY! got paid, so after a bit of research (or procrastination) on the forums, I decided to go with a Stillwater Heavyweight for the upcoming winter and also so that I had something other than my UK to wear around. (May my pants hang in a dark corner of the closet for many days to come.)

Now, I have two things on my mind:

1.) How well does wool work during the summer? I'm not going to be sweating buckets, am I?
EDIT: Just realized it's almost September, but still plenty hot!

2.) It seems I'm on the lower end of waist sizes (32"), which was the smallest available in the Black Watch tartan. Is there any advice I should keep in mind since I'm generally a bit skinny, unlike the caber tossing fellows I imagine you crowd to be

(I should probably also note that this is kilt #2, starting to pave the way for a larger collection )
