USA Kilts Casual VS SWK

[RadioKen]

Hi! There are definite differences between the SWK Standard and the USAK Casual. One notable one is in the method of closure. The SWK uses buckles where the USAK uses velcro. The SWK is generally available in a single length while the USAK is made to measure. The SWK uses probably twice as much fabric over the USAK in the same size and tartan which will increase its "swish" factor, but also its overall weight. And if you want your tartan pleated to the stripe, then you must go with the USAK as all SWK kilts are pleated to the sett.

I'm sure there are other differences, but those are the ones I could think of off the top of my head at this early hour.

I looked, and didn't see any comparisons of the two. Of course, I know that the semitrad would easily trump the OTR, and the SWK Standard. (As to the wool SWK, I don't know, that might well be two different sides of the coin)

ahh. I'll go with the SWK and save for the semitrad from USA Kilts then, it's too cold here to think of a lighter weight kilt right now. (ok, its not cold here yet, but there is a winter storm advisory up)
