Just got my UK Survival delivered today and can't wait to wear it. NOthing like standing out in a crowd.
BTW - what's the preferred belt width for one of those?

As for belt widths I use belts that are 2"s wide, one black and one brown, I use them for both my contemporary kilts and when worn casually my traditional kilts.

Welcome from the North of the state. I generally wear a 1 3/4" wide belt with my UKs, 2" would be good too. Anything much larger won't fit the belt loops.
Best regards,
Jake

I'm in Oceanside - Where are you?
As to your belt question. Most of us wear a wider belt than normal. Some up to 3 1/2 inches. Most kilt belts that I have are around 2 to 2 1/2 inches.
Many "traditional" kilts don't have belt loops some do. Of those that have belt loops, most are larger than normal. For the UK's a good work belt should look fine.
