Seconding Steve's question. Sounds like the fabric is't PV because PV doesn't seem very prone to pilling. We've seen kilts that are actually made of Acrylic, which is prone to pilling, erroneously called Poly Viscose here several times in the past…there was a long standing question about "16 oz. PV" floating around the forum for a while and it was pretty well settled that what was being referred to as 16 oz PV was actually Acrylic. The PV material that I have has a finish more like worsted wool while the acrylic has a more fuzzy texture.

Best,
