    It's true. I got my tank first and a casual later. The casual is fine for some things, but it's not the same animal as my tank.

    I currently have four Tanks. When I got my first one it changed everything, I was hooked and there was no looking back. There's simply nothing to compare them to.

    When I put on my kilt (traditional heavy) for the 1st time...my wife looked at it, after a minute or 2 she told me to stop moving my butt. I was not moving...well not deliberately...the pleats start to dance with the slightest movement it seems.

    It's my only kilt, so I don't have a clue about other kilts, but I already got a truckload of nice remarks about the "dancing pleats".

    I love the way the pleats on my tanks always look good, even after sitting, and they flow and move so elegantly. It makes even my hobble look dignified.

    The swoosh is such a nice feature of kilt, that is why I am addicted.

    Thanks for sharing Brian.

    My wife noticed a similar effect with my SWK. I had to inform her that a "swish factor" was a desirable thing.

    Okey...so it's "the swish factor"....maybe Shay and Barb can confirm this to make it a scientifically proven fact?
