    from coastal North Carolina. I have two Stillwater and no experience with Frugal Corner. Their kilts look similar, probably for the same Pakistan manufacturer.

    First off ...

    Welcome to X Marks the Scot!

    Second, I highly recomend Stillwater Kilts. I have two of their heavyweight wool kilts and two of their standards. I have also purchased three sporrans, kilt hose, flashes, kilt hangers, and a belt from Jerry V. the owner of Stillwater over the last year and a half (not to mention a kilt for my Father-in-law). His customer service is second to none.

    The SWK only come in a 24" length so if you require shorter you will need to hem or have it hemmed.

    Are they as good as my Matt Newsome 5 yard handsewn Galbraith Ancient knife pleat kilt? Are they as good as my 8 yard Scottish made handsewn Black watch kilt?

    No.

    But I still like them very much and keep an eye out for what Jerry brings in next.

    Here are a review I wrote about them:
