I am a total kilt snob now.
I started out with a 4 yard Bear kilt in the lighter Candian province tartans. I moved up from there to a 4 yard Bear in the clan tartans from Marton Mills. After that I ordered an 8 yard from Bear and an 8 yard from Canadakilt. All of these kilts made me feel like a king when wearing them, but something was missing. I added a tweed argyle jacket and waistcoat to my collection and soon realized that a traditional kilt was in order. I now have a hard time wearing any of the 4 yard PV kilts, and I sold off the 8 yard Bear and Canada kilt, as I just never wore them. I am a total convert and see the superior quality, durability, adaptablility, and comfort of wool. I will next order a Weatherd MacKenzie 13 oz for more regualr wear and keep the 8 yard 16oz Watson for formal.
But yes, I am a kilt snob, but only by holding myself to my standards.

Exactly. I prefer a nice single malt scotch to a bourbon, blended whisky, or rye so it's only natural that I would want the best kilt I could afford.
