My WPG Gordon is a great, heavy kilt. And I emphasize heavy. In your neck of the woods, that's a big plus. In the South, it gets a little warm in summers. Last June, even at Gatlinburg, TN, I was a bit warm one evening when it was not as cool as usual in the mountains.

It's not as exquisitely made as my custom kilts--like Kid noted--but it's very well made. It'll probably outlive us all. At least it's not likely to wear out.

I recommend them highly. Can't beat the price for a full heavy kilt. They look good, too. Just remember that they are meant to be worn high, well above the navel in traditional military fashion, not at the "natural waist." I think that may help keep them from riding up.
