Chilly Legs ??

[Casey_in_Carolina]

Wore my kilt over to the folks for Thanksgiving the other day, and noticed that while playing outside with my oldest daughter, my legs began to get a bit chilly. Temperature was probably about the low to mid 50's(Fahrenheit of course), and while I was comfortable, I couldn't help but notice the occasional chill in my upper legs. Only about up to mid-thigh or so.

Now, I don't have a tank, and at this rate, won't for years. I'm wearing a USA Kilts Casual Kilt in PV. Is this why I get the occasional chill? Will I have to wait until I can afford a tank to go out in the cooler weather without receiving a chill?

Trust me - an eight yard woolen kilt is considerably warmer.

I JUST got back in from a walk-about. It was about 35 degrees here in Michigan when I started, maybe hit 40 in the sun. A great late fall day here. I wore a wollen sweater over a flannel shirt, one of my SWK "Standard" kilts, hiking socks and boots, tweed flat cap and I was roasty-toasty.

My pv's are far too light for this kind of weather unless I'm really working or practicing heavy events, but my SWK Standards are the perfect weight/warmth for between 20-40 degrees in my opinion. Tanks are definately warmer and I only pull mine out for formal events or if its cold and I'm not being active.

Try a SWK standard to just knock about in for this weather. Can't go wrong with the price or the service.

I only wear a tank, and I stay warm down into the low teens.

Let's not start bragging now....Oh, you mean the temperature!

Chilly legs? No problem, just chase faster women. That should warm those legs up.

Wool is much warmer. I find that my knees hurt less (chronic problem) wearing a kilt in cool weather. It seems that keeping them cool helps a bit with the inflammation of chronic knee problems. At least that is my perception.

Go for the Heavy weight SWK and you you won't have any problems. It's 32 here in Park City at 7000 ft. and I am in a standard Irish National SWK and Quite warm with a long sleeve cotton and a heavy wool sweater with a

Ok, time to get serious, wool is definitely what you need.

Try wearing "lycra" bike shorts under your kiklt.
