    If possible make sure you get the heaviest weight. As it is 4 yd, it is lighter than normal.
    Having said that, for the price you can not beat the quality. I have a B&S casual Maple Leaf which I love.
    My only wish is that they offer it in the McIntosh tartan.

    I was surprised they don't do MacKintosh in the sale item casuals. Their selection certainly used to be wider. Even the MacBean Ancient is gone...glad I bought mine a year ago!

    As they always point out, a lot has to do with the size of the sett of the tartan. USA Kilts did a casual (5 yds.) PV for me in Hunting Stewart and pleated it to the yellow stripe beautifully...has me wanting another in the semi-trad version pleated the same way. So it's sett size and length that determine some of your options.
