I recently purchased 2 Stillwater kilts - the Black Heavyweight, and the Nightstalker 2006 Standard. I like the Sillwaters soo much that I plan to replace several of my SportKilts with Stillwaters of the same tartan. I probably by 2006 standard models, with the exception of a Black Watch Heavyweight.

Since it is winter, I have no experience wearing the Stillwater standards or heavyweights during summer. I would appreciate any advice you can give me about summertime heat tolerance.

I live in mid-Missouri, and the heat and humidity can really get up there and remain in the high range for several days or even weeks. Temperatures in the mid to upper 90's with humidity in the 70-80 percent range are not uncommon. Some days when you step outside from air conditioning, the heat and humidty feel like a blast furnace - even the breeze is hot.

I don't know whether the Stillwaters would have a cooling effect in this type of weather, or whether they would be unbearably hot. Thanks for any input you can give me.
