Or maybe I'm overthinking this and should go for it. I can always hem it after realizing it's a mistake.
A hem was often put on a child's kilt to allow for growth, I've even seen the odd adult on done that way but it is invariably done when using poor quality cloth. A good quality cloth with a descent selvedge or, heaven forbid a tuck edge, does not need to be hemmed and doing so will affect the the movement of the cloth, and not in a good way.
