Oh what a waste! The sacrilege! The carnage! A burning kilt!
But, I'm really wondering here. Wool is a natural fiber, and it burns too!
My point is both fabrics have their place and uses. As has been said, without the synthetics, some people would never be able to become kilted. In my closet I now have 1/2 synthetic, 1/4 wool blend and 1/4 wool. Each fabric is good looking! Each fabric has it's individual feel or hand. I choose which fabric I am going to wear that day by the activity of the day.
For instance, when I leave tomorrow on my trip, I will be taking four synthetics and two wools. The synthetics will generally be for day wear and the wools generally for evening. (make that five synthetic and 2 wool - I forgot the one that I will be wearing)
I should also say that I have always known, up front, what I was buying!
I would be interested in seeing a demonstration of the different fabics burning, side by side. But -
