You should definitely wear the kilt at your waist. The proportions will look better & you'll knock 'em dead at the show. :-)

There's nothing like breaking in a new kilt. One of my favorite pastimes ;-)

Looks great, but let's see some knee.

I definitely agree that you should wear your kilt higher. Remember, a mans waist is not down barely above the crotch no matter what Madison Avenue would have us believe.
The waist is just barely above the navel. Not only does it look funny to have so much upper body going on above the kilt belt, but worn properly a kilt is quite slimming.

Long torso and short legs
I get the hint.. I'll hike it up more. This was the first time I'd put it on and didn't have any experienced kilt-wearers around for advice. Thanks for the comments!

Yeah, nice lookin' Kilt. That's a Stillwater Standard, correct? I think the Stillwater Standard is more comfortable and looks better than my Stillwater Heavyweights.
BTW, what kind of vest is that? I have been looking for a vest to go with a Jacobite shirt. That one looks good.

You look so natural in a kilt. Great pic. Haven't bought a Stillwater yet due to the lack of being able to customize lengths....would be like buying pants in different waist sizes with all one pant length and expecting folks to whack off their own pant legs to length.
Heck, even SportKilt offers custom length now...got my black Stewart there because of it.
But must work for SK, they seem to sell a LOT of kilts, at least to this board. Nice folks, they've put up with a multitude of my questions.
