My Stillwater Saffron kilt arrived today, the length is about perfect for me, it could be a half-inch shorter to fit my tastes (like to wear 'em at the top of the knee cap) but close enough.
Problem is, and I guess I should be pleased in some way, it's too big around the middle. With the straps at their tightest, it's fits almost perfectly and I still have my "winter coat." A few weeks of getting outside and it will be too big. Odd, my Utilikilt(s) is(are) a 37" at just a hair too tight where I wear my jeans and the Stillwater is a 38" up around my slightly "puffy" mid-section.
So now I get to wait while it goes back and wait more while the 36" ships.
Poor me.
But it is a nice looking kilt. For the price, I was not expecting the quality. And, quite frankly, I'm shocked about the length being right. I'm 5'9" on a good day and almost ever pair of pants I buy is too long. Must be the new math.
