    I've endured Soutuhern Humidity all my life and I would rather deal with it in a kilt than shorts or pants. Currently I only have a USA Casual which is great in Georgia. I feel you are going to be better off simply for wearing the kilt. The best advise though is Body Glide.

    This is the best price I've found.

    I grew up in South Texas where it is over 100 degrees and almost 100% humidity much of the summer. I never got used to it because the two together are just a knockout punch.

    Now I'm in DC where it gets hot and humid but nowhere near as bad as South Texas. I have several SportKilts that I wore last summer when I was going to have to be outside for any length of time. Since I can't exactly move quickly on foot, and spend much of my time in a chair, ventilation in a heavy kilt was definitely an issue for me. When I'm in that wheelchair, I'm soaked on the entire backside of my kilt as well as along the rise if it's not something really light.
