    New SWK just arrived

    I must admit that I shied away from the PV fabric kilts but after receiving my SWK standard weight in Irish Saffron I am pleasantly surprised at the fit and feel. Looks I found a new supplier for casual, everyday Kilts.

    I only own a tank but will be soon, thanks to everyone here at XMTS, expanding my wardrobe. It is great hearing words like yours that celebrate the PV as not a total disappointment, but rather a welcome addition.

    It's not a replacement for my Geoffrey (Tailor) but I won't worry the care and feeding of it. It'll be a great summer weight Kilt.

    The SWK Standards are Acrylic and not PV (polyviscose), but still very nice!
    I have two SWK kilts, a Black Watch Thrifty and a Black Stewart Standard.
    It's great to have this more affordable option.

    I've always been pleased with kilts from Stillwater. Oh, and pictures please.

    Congrats! Of course, now you'll "need" another for variation!

    I have 4 SWKs, so needless to say I'm a fan of Jerry's "bang for the buck" kilts!

    Let me think... How many do I own? I have 3 standards and one heavyweight. I like my heavyweight best. It's a huge step up- and since the temps in Denver aren't supposed to get out of the teens tomorrow, it is nice to have a good sturdy wool kilt to wear.

    Ditto. The solid green heavyweight is my fave SWK--even here in sunny California!

    I wore my Nighstalker to a Highland festival here. It broke 100F and I just about died! I left before I saw Seamus Kennedy- and that's unheard of for me!
