How do you deceide....

My $.02- Check out the House of Edgar heavyweight tartan range. They are the only mill that I know of that makes the Brown tartan in a 16oz fabric. If that's to your liking, I'd recommend a custom-tailored kilt by Matt Newsome of the Scottish Tartans Museum in Franklin. I currently have 2 5yd. knife-pleated kilts and a 4yd. box-pleat, all in heavyweight wool. You can't beat this option for comfort, craftsmanship, and customer-service. Matt is by far the best supplier of Scottish goods I've run across.

Like everyone else has basically said, do your research. Any of the makers mentioned, as well as many others will produce a quality product.

I have to tell you though, your question should really be "Who should I get a kilt from first?" After you've worn a traditional you'll want one from each maker, just to make your collection complete.
