Well Ted,
Hope someday your budget allows you a nice USA Kilts semi-trad or even a hand sewn 16 ounce strome. Big difference from acrylic...big difference...
And, as we started, good to put a face to the name.

Hey Ron, got tangled up in editing problems back there, but thanks. Like I said, that's the only acrylic I'm going to get. That was my first kilt, and it at least gives me some reference point. I like the PV materiel, it's still not wool, but it's good in it's own way. Same with the BK. I just don't try to think of them as the samekind of kilt.
Here's that moved post.
Thanks Ron. I don't want to put down the acrylic SWK, but I think that will be the only one I get, if for no other reason than that I have six cats, LOL! I'm pausing for a while in buying kilts until i figure out the tartans I want and so on. I'll probably have a USAK this year and at some point a tank. Ah, 16 Oz ooooo. I want to be sure about what I want before I get a tank or perhaps one of Matts Box pleats. In a way, I am very overwelmed by the abundence of tartan options. Money can be squeezed out of the old turnup.
And Joel, we were all posting at the same time, LOL, and couldn't read eachothers posts or something. This happens to me sometimes. Oh well, I'm having fun.
** And there. I hope I have covered all the editing, the whole story of these two kilts, and things are clear enough to rest for a while. This was a lot of fun, and a lot of editing/typeing/logging back in work. I'll keep watching this thread for any new posts. Thanks everybody.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
