The Stillwater Heavyweight

Excellent. I will do that. Thank you. By "not allowed" I refer to the box at the bottom of most pages lablesd "posting rules". Mine says "you may not post attachments".

I think we all have that. Attachments just take up more room on the server, and we're apparently pushing things as it is! ;)

I've got the same thing about attachments, I think everyone does. Just follow the instructions in the pictures section and all will be well. :-D

Instructions? Real men don't read the instructions. Sheesh, that would make it too easy.

By the way, other than being pleated to the sett rather than the stripe, and not rising above the navel quite as high, this Heavyweight looks/fits/hangs a lot like my 1940's MOD Military issue kilt I have, albeit the Stillwater isn't a 22oz'er (Thank goodness, wheeew!).

I just ordered a Merino Wool Black Watch Heavyweight from Stillwater and it was $155.00 plus $10.00 P&H. I'm a fat **** and need a 44" waist, so the smaller sizes may be a bit less. I'll give my impressions and photos when I get it. Cheers.

Cool! That's a great price! How does the Merino wool feel? I've had a couple Merino sweaters that were soft as butter, felt great next to the skin. Did I hear right that these were an 8 yard kilt? Is that in a 16 oz. weight? If so that's a hell of a price, I may have to break down and buy one soon.

Oops, Just reread their website. I thought at first the heavyweight and the merino kilts were one and the same. Guess not. Oh well still a hell of a price for a nice looking kilt. I'll see how the standard I ordered yesterday looks and go from there. I was kinda wanting to go with a nicer wool kilt for the next buy, It does get a bit chilly in Idaho in the winter and it would be nice to have the extra insulation.

For a 13 oz 8 yarder that is a great price. It looks like Jerry upgraded the wool. Nice kilt.

It is the same thing. The kind of wool is just not mentioned every time. http://www.stillwaterkilts.com/heavykilt.html

The new Stillwaters look pretty good. I was wondering,how does the new wool feel? Congratulations on the new kilt! :grin:
