    I have long wanted an Inverness Cape. For a lot of years, I shopped the internet and highland games for a good one.

    Many of the folk were sucked into buying one of the cheap, plastic "Inverness Cape" costing about a weeks pay! Deplorable.

    Ok, Maybe not a weeks pay, however they still range from $70 to $120 bucks for a cheap raincoat.

    I'd really like an actual wool cape. Something that would actually keep me warm and dry.

    If it were me, I'd stay away from the nylon or lightweight cotton ones. Kilts are very warm as it is. When I need a cape, I need something WARM, as well as something to protect the kilt as well.

    I have that cape, BTW. It's just fine and is designed for a piper's needs, but will work for anyone.
