The tartan in that link I sent is around 15 oz. weight....
Yeah im going to go for heavy weight. Inverness has alot of cold days! Im still looking for tartans that catch my eye. At the momment im still big on weathered hunting tartans because they will tie in with my brown wool waistcoat and the look im going for. What do you think of them for the jacobite period? The clanranald trust sell medieval tartans! look them up on clanranaldtrust.org. They have done alot of films and tv. Including gladitator, valhala rising and a program about clencoe.
