As Barb said; pull your kilt up a bit. Move the buckles and inner apron strap if necessary.
You don't need quite so many twists in your ghillie laces. For long parades, you might prefer some really cushy walking shoes that looks like wingtip brogues, like Dr. Scholls.

Great to see someone else in the saffron kilt!
Was hoping you'd see this picture... saw yours in the gallery (marching in Puerto Rico, right?)

The funny thing about the twists.. Since I didn't know how to tie them, I read how to on Andrew Lenzs' site. He said the front twist anywhere from 2 to 6 and the back just has to be less than the front. So, wanting to start a 'ritual' for dressing I did 5 in the front and 2 in the back, signifying the #25, which is the day of my birth and my wife's as well (2 different months).

I did look for the Dr Scholls faux-wingtip and I couldn't find them. Do you lace them up the same way?
