though some are currently only available in 10 oz weight, we are in the process of weaving them all in 12 oz (which is quite suitable for most Canadian climates year round)

I'd like to poll the rabble on suitable weight for kilts, specifically in the context of a Canadian climate a.k.a. The Great White North. I don't want to bias the results of the survey but I suspect I know what the answer will be. I'm hoping that the weavers will take note!

You may select as many answers as you feel are valid.
