r/kilt

This is an off-the-rack wool kilt that I bought to wear to the renaissance festival (hence the non-traditional belt). I'll probably buy a few more off-the-rack kilts and maybe some non-traditional (PV sport kilts or utility) kilts for casual wear.

That said, I'd like to invest in a traditional, made to fit kilt for more formal events but will have to measure at home and order online.

Is this around the correct length for me? To clarify, the top of the kilt is at my navel and my hose come up to just under my kneecaps (yes, I know I'm built like Gru from Despicable Me).

I'm also wide open to any other criticism, feel free to roast away.

Finally, I'm looking for recommendations for US based kilt makers. A proper Scottish made kilt would be awesome, but shipping would probably double the price given the <gestures everywhere>.

I have had this kilt for over 20yrs.

Mostly its for weddings(and my own).

Sorry, dont have the formal shoes, decide to punk it out for this event;)

With shout out to MackGriogar for the boots!!

I’m new to kilts y’all so go easy on me. I bought a kilt belt but I have no idea how I’m supposed to fasten it. It doesn’t have a buckle just a metal loop. The inside is lined with soft Velcro from the ‘buckle’ end to about 7-8 inches from the pointed end where it changes to the hard plastic Velcro loop material.

Any help is appreciated
