False Lower Strap?
Had an idea. There has been a lot of discussion about the lower, third strap of a kilt causing problems when too tight, and possibly damaging the stitching and top apron of the kilts. I don't see how a stabilizer could be used for this strap and buckle.
Have any of the kilt makers ever used a non-functional, third strap that is attached to the underapron rather than top apron, and a loop of elastic from the top apron to a button in that area?
The elastic and button would be to gently hold the top apron against the false strap, but perhaps some other kind of flexable closure could be used.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
