I have a friend in Springfield, but this is my first kilted Fall and Winter and I'm in southern California. It's been getting pretty cold for this area, but nothing like the weather in Springfield.

I would think that wool, depending on how much [if any] oil is left in it, would fair very well in wet weather. As for kilt hose and foot wear, that could get tricky. I'm still a n00b, having only been kilted since July . . . but I would think a trench coat would be perfectly fine if the weather required it. I'm sure our kilted elders can answer you better than I.
