This is not something that the Kiltstore folks are willing to share - they are understandably not happy to have you go around them and order directly from the mill.
I think Marton Mills is a very good buy in tartan. I just made a kilt in their Scottish-American 16 oz, and it's a nice substantial tartan. I don't like their selvedges much, but they are better than some that have been previously discussed on this forum. DC Dalgliesh is by far my favorite for quality, but they don't have a very big range in heavy weight tartans. Their real forte is 11-12 oz dress tartan for dancers and their one-off custom weaves.
Cheers,
Barb
