Kilt design for hot climate
I like it airy, on the other hand, I want to sit down in a restaurant / cafe and keep my legs apart.
What 's the kilt look like ? Picures somewhere ?
Design patterns, templates.
Materials for tropical climates.

I just wear a 13oz wool kilt for just about every occasion. I have a poly/cotton kilt from freedom kilts that I also wear. You can't go wrong with a wool kilt. You can dress it down or up for different weather conditions.

No clue where you are on the Planet, but would suggest the USA Kilts Casual model for hot weather.

Seated, legs apart.

Summer in Tucson - pleat shot.

Plenty of pleat swing.

Reclining, with legs apart.

Maui, heat AND humidity.

Oven-like dry heat of the canyonlands.

Arid heat of the Hopi Mesas.
I rest my case.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Welcome from Eastern Washington State.
The sporran helps you sit down in a restaurant/cafe and keep your leg apart. Lads don't sit like lasses, for obvious anatomical reasons.

Greetings and welcome to the forum. Ron has pretty much covered all your questions. I don't think I can add anything.
