From what I see they are not made to specification, neither in material nor workmanship, but are made following (historic) patterns. I'm not quite sure about the 22 oz. as current (and even WW-II era) kilts are (were) not made of 22 oz cloth. Current specifications have been using 19oz tartans that have (up untill now) been contracted from (reading the news closely) Hainsworth in Yorkshire (and woven by Robert Noble and Co). Or are these really 19oz tartans sourced from Hainsworth, Noble or House of Edgar and being called 22 oz (since they feel much heavier to the touch than 18 Oz Strome material)?
