    A search for "SWK*" yields a bit more.

    Yeah, I mentioned that... the forums won't let you search for a word that's 3 letters long or less:

    I have a wool heavyweight and I love it. Jerry has great customer service, and the delivery time does not allow for a serious jones to develop (unless of course you happen to live outside the US) A quality product a reasonable price and quick delivery, what more can you ask for?

    Getting ready to drop the hammer on an SWK myself...while we're on the subject, can anyone say if they are cut big...small etc?. I seem to remember reading another thread where someone said that they had learned their lesson after buying their first SWK, and bought their second one a size smaller.

    So, cut big, or cut small?

    Thanks!

    The SWK website states that the sizing is to the tightest (last) hole, so a 36 waist is 36 to the hole nearest the apron. I bought a 36 and found it was a bit tight on that hole. Some folks have said they run big, some have said a bit small. Since these are off the peg you have to expect some strap adjusting in the waist and/or seat unless you are a SWK template kind of guy. Jerry will exchange in a heartbeat as long as you don't remove the basting stitches. With shipping as fast as it is from SWK, that type of thing is a viable option - much more so than an overseas transaction.

    OK..... Something I can actually help with.

    I own an Economy Gordon and a standard Blackwatch - Awsome for the price. The selveged edge is not quite straight and it is cut a bit large, so I absolutely have to wear a belt. I like the quality and even some of my friends are now thinking of gettin' one themselves. I will purchase more kilts from them as I am very happy with thier product.

    The weight of the fabric is pretty nice (especially here in so. arizona) and the acrylic material holds a pleat nicely!

    That's why SWK plus asterisk yields a little more (SWK*).

    It's four letters long.
