    I remember hearing/reading that about the "economy" one, but really don't recall anyone having a problem with the new "heavy". Problems with the sway and all are almost hard to imagine! They're not constructed to where they could NOT have the sway! Either it's a "mis-read" or someone's not being completely up front!

    I wonder if perhaps the person got the kilt and in their rush to see how it looked put it on without removing the basting stitches first. They don't hang or swing worth a darn with those still in. (Don't ask how I know such things, LOL)

    Jerry does say to try it on before taking the basting stitches out, to make sure you got the right size, as he doesn't take returns on those without the stitches.

    Hey all,

    I think they offer two "heavyweight" choices, both a wool Black Watch 8-yarder and an acrylic black 6-yarder. Maybe someone was complaining about the hang and swing of the acrylic "heavyweight"? (Don't know this, just a guess) But all this talk and the pics have just about pushed me over the edge where I gotta have the wool one. Thanks alot, guys, you just cost me 150 bucks! LoL!!!!!

    Joe
