Many inexpensive kilts that are advertised as pv are actually acrylic.
The pv (made by Marton Mills) used by USA Kilts and Canadian Casual Kilts is far superior to other synthetics. The appearance is very close to wool.
What tartan does the band wear? If Marton Mills makes the tartan, show a swatch of it to the pipe major as Panache suggested. He will probably be very surprised it is not wool.
