GOOD DAY, Last year I BW pipe band with the WG band, (they were on a natinal tour) and boy it was cold one that night. Here in eastern Kansas we often get a few days in Jan. that cold air rushes in from the north, it will get down to about the low teens and around zero at night. Well I drove downtown to the hall, I had to park about two blocks from the hall in a underground garage. I knew that it was very cold outside (about 5 above)
so I dressed warm ie wool kilt hose, a wool under shirt another dress shirt, wool sweater, top with a barn coat and with my SWK Black Stewart. When I got inside I found that I was over dressed, I felt too hot and had to check the coat I almost felt like pulling my sweater off at intermission but went outside to cool off. It was the kilt and all the other wool, there was other gents there that had kilts and they seem to be all warm when guys in suits and topcoats were complaining about the weather. I do remember that my ears felt the cold air, guess that I should of had a hat, but you cann't beat a good kilt when it's chilling outside.

THANKS Wes
