The upper crust for sure but fine looking and solid value. Happened across the website for a hand sewn kiltmaker lady in Scotland who only sews from this material. She was sewing the traditional 8 yard kilts and when I hit the currancy converter on her price list so it showed dollars her work was over $1,000 for a hand sewn 8 yard kilt. Guessed the nearly double cost over regular wools was due to the material.
I do think there's a market for the finest as well as for the least expensive. Nice to see the top niche filled with such succulent looking material.
