You have a fine garment my friend! I've some SWK's and am comfortable with their fit and wear. I would that they were shorter to the knee in length, as I prefer to have no cloth constantly making contact and being an annoyance there. A fine tailor cured that condition, but it would cost less for me if SWK offered a length 2 to 4in (5 to 10cm) shorter.
I found the basting to be a mixed help/non help. For secureness of cloth in shipping it was perfect. For fitting upon delivery to see if it was what I wanted, what could I do but remove the basting and try the kilt on for examination. If it was illfitted I'd have to rebaste and send back. I'm no tailor or seamstress. (No, my other dear friends out here, I wouldn't use the stapler! 
)
My kilt wardrobing goal is simple. Get more.
Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?
. It is much lighter a good thing as it was close to 90. I'm a heat wimp. Sweated like crazy any ways. What I love is no itching. Now I need to find a good way to protect it, as I will be wearing his more often. I have a job that is rough on kilts. I have an idea will work on it and tell you later. Body glide is a wonderful thing. Very comfortable today despite the weather. Not an 8 yarder either which is good as I did a lot of driving today.
