Get the ancient and get it in PV that way you save the most money, and get that old look, while remaining cool in the heat. If you get questioned, tell them you had a good poly crop this year and you had it woven into your plaid....

the PV is what i was drawn toward mostly, but CC has this "Homespun" material and it says it is 45% wool, also is cheaper.

The homespun is a nice fabric, a rather loose feeling weave. IMO it makes a pretty nice belted plaid.

It's not as wide as the PV (maybe 54 inches versus 60). So if you're tall, it may not be as versatile. I'm 5' 11.75" (182 cm) and it's not quite long enough to make a hood with the top portion; but otherwise I can wear it 'most any usual way.
