I have a StillWater wool kilt. I like it for the price I paid for it.
It is not a traditional kilt, but it kind of has that look to it. The pleats have sewn down at the fell; that's a good thing. The fabric is not cut away between the top and fell; that makes it bulky around the waist or belt area. There's other things good and bad about it...
I think about it a little like an off the rack wool sport jacket that's fine for the price, but not a hand crafted garment.
I also have an acrylic standard StillWater. It's a very light weight kilt. I don't compare the two, other than it is built in the same way as the wool kilt. The fabric is soft and fluffy kind of like some acrylic sweaters.
Hope that helps.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
