I have four of these kilts, one SWK black economy, a Wallace SWK thrifty, a Mackenzie FC I paid about 35$ for on sale a year or more ago, and a custom 16oz Clarke FC. The only one I wear a lot is the Mackkenzie FC, except in the colder times or at a public-invited jam fest, when I wear the Clarke FC. Both SWK's make me look fatter than if I wear the FC's . (I am 5'8", 175 lbs).
I have received several compliments from tourists from Scotland for my Mackenzie FC.
It would be unfair of me to compare any of these to my new Burnett's and Struth wool casual in my clan Ancient MacHardy. This one is a truly fine kilt.
