How high is too high?

[Rex_Tremende]

From my experience with SWK standards, neither of my two have had the excess pleating cut away around the waist. It does make for a rather heavy and hot waistline.

Is this also true for the heavyweights? I understand from the dialog here that this can be fixed after consulting with Barb's book, is that correct?

The 2005 heavyweight acrylic that I have is the same, in that the pleats are not cut out.

You could probably do that no problem with Barb's book. I echo KCW's comments on that subject.
