    So you know, I own only tartan kilts - no contemporaries. That being said, I like my PV kilts - but I love my wool kilts. If money is no object (yeah - right) then nothing matches wool - the swish is amazing and any wrinkles seem to fall out all by themselves. A wool kilt is a lifetime investment. I think PV kilts are the best lower cost alternative to wool. Easy fabric washing and a teflon coating (at least on Rocky's PV's) make PV kilts a very smart buy indeed. But for this kilt wearer - I think I'll be buying wool from now on.

    David, I wore only wool traditional kilts for over 30 years. Then I "branched out" after discovering X Marks. I now have a USAK semi-traditional, and I love it. No, it isn't the same as wool, but I find that I wear my USAK (and my other non-trad. kilts) far more often than my tank. Anyway, that's my experience; I am totally happy with my USAK.
