Thanks lads for the interesting info. It's interesting that when committing to wear a kilt - it doesn't stop there, everything else that we wear tends to change, it's all gotta fit in with the kilt! (as it should be of course).

Thanks for the detail from the "chill experts". Our winter here would not be near so severe as Canada ( you hardy bunch) so I don't see I'll have a problem.

I like my 16oz 8 yard wool kilt, but for driving long distances it's not too comfy, it's a lot of woolen folds under your bum when driving!!

I'm going to stock up on more pairs of warm kilt hose, or rugby socks.
