I am at a standstill of sorts, as I plan my next kilt purchase. I was thinking of saving up for a USA Kilts Semi Trad, but I see that they might have the tartan as an OTR. Now, that is a heck of a chunk of change in time saved as well as money, but with my other kilt that I have being a SWK standard, how would this compare? Would I think the OTR casual would feel a little odd in comparison, of course I could pay the extra and get the nicer version, which would be ideal, but not nearly as likely that I could get it before my birthday next month.

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)

(Yeah, I don't have the $$ before my birthday to get the semi trad. The price for the casual would be close to a wool SWk, and if not already in stock by my size would be cutting it close on the wait time. arrgggggggg. I also can't rationalize getting the less expensive USAK then getting the same tartan in the higher end model, as much as the lower end would cost.)

(bloody time/service/cost triad rules. )
