Southern Breeze, I thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail in a four-yard Bear Kilt last year. The kilt provided warmth for southern snowstorms, and airflow for the northern humid summer. The same kilt is still in such good condition after 2,174 miles that I intend to wear it on both my upcoming Pacific Crest Trail hike and, providing my knees are still intact, the Continental Divide Trail after that. I have no doubts the kilt will survive the 8,000 miles of hiking.
Graham's links will give pointers on the usefulness of various fabrics in weather, and so on.
Andrew.
