    Yeppers on the props for SWK. I ordered a kilt belt from them the Wednesday before Christmas and it got here the Monday after. I really had my fingers crossed that I would get it on Christmas Eve but there was some white stuff on the ground between OKla. and Minn. that delayed it, I'm sure. But it looks great and my son wants one now.

    Yeah. I bought an off the rack non-wool kilt from the local Celtic store and I absolutely love it. I have no idea where they buy them from (except that they're from Scotland), but it's very heavy and doesn't pill like like my SWK standards do. I still love them, and Jerry's service is unsurpassed. And I'm quite sure everybody, including Jerry, told me when I began this journey of kilting that SWK standards and thriftys are meant to be a good value, not the highest quality kilt you can find. That's why they're 80 bucks.

    Can anyone speak to the jump in quality from an SWK standard to an SWK heavyweight wool? If it's significant, I sure wouldn't mind seeing that Ancient Hunting MacRae hanging in my closet. Are you listening, Jerry?

    I'd also have to agree with the comment about Rocky's stuff. I've been slowly circling USA kilts for my next purchase.
