To be honest I feel kind of stupid asking people to compare the two when probably there isn't anyone out there who owns one of each!
I'm guessing they're both reasonably good for off the rack jackets. The Higgins set is $65 cheaper and will definitely not incur duty when it comes across to Canada (since they're made in the good old USA). On the other hand I hear nothing but good things about Rocky and his kilts and expect that his jackets are similarly good.
I think the idea of spending $300+ on a jacket I haven't seen up close is a bit daunting. Unfortunately the ones I've seen so far in Toronto are significantly more expensive.
