Ahhh Blu,
That 16 oz. jones. My first hand sewn traditional was only 11oz due to fabric availability. Figured it would work in the Arizona heat - and it does. I didn't "get it" until my first, and only, 16 oz Strome arrived. Now I see the incredible difference.
Still waiting on my X Marks kilt...think we did that in 14 oz (?) so now will have a range of weights in hand sewn traditional kilts.
Can tell you for sure that future hand sewn purchases will be in 16 oz for sure...
Price?? Too late...I'm hooked...
Maybe I can snap all my UKs together into some sort of a tent to live in out in the high desert....
