    Hm, only guesses, here, from looking at the website you posted. My two cents?

    --Looks like a low-rise, but otherwise, traditional kilt. Perhaps they use some tailoring methods similar to trousers?

    --For 265-285 GBP and an 8 to 10 week wait, I think I would want something more custom than the stock sizes they offer.

    Well, I'm an idiot. I didnt' look at the site you mentioned. I thought you were talking about a breachan feile, a great kilt.

    The one you show apprears to be a very nice kilt, low-rise with fewer yards of wool that a proper kilt. I own a 5-yard kilt and wear it often for day wear. It's a bit cooler than a full 8-yarder, but it still looks good. No one else knows it's the lighter version than me because it is well made.
