If you check on the site they have the features of both, as far as fitting a 30" waist are you talking about "True Waist" where the semi-trad is worn or are you talking waist where your pants would be worn, either way the best thing would be to talk to Rocky about it, I would think.

I am sure Rocky can make you a kilt regardless of your waist size. If your size isn't listed on the website, email Rocky or give him a call on the phone to place your order.
McMurdo is correct. Do NOT go by your pants size. Measure using a tape measure and follow the measuring instructions on the USA Kilts website.
Here is a quick comparison of USAK’s kilts:
USAK Casual
* Made of 4 to 5 yards of 11 oz. washable PV material from Marton Mills.
* Perma-pleating, and pleats sewn down at the fell.
* Hand pleated to sett or stripe.
* Velcro fastening system.
* Intended to be worn (low) on the hips, but can be worn higher (if ordered longer).
* Tapered front apron. Three-quarter width under-apron.
* No waist band, but material folded over at the top.
* Three belt loops intended for a 1.5-inch wide belt are standard, but wider belt loops provided when requested.
* No lining.
* Machine sewn.
USAK Semi-Traditional
* Made of 7 to 8 yards of 11 oz. washable PV material from Marton Mills.
* Pleats sewn down at the fell.
* Hand pleated to sett or stripe.
* Three straps and buckles for fastening.
* Intended to be worn (high) on the waist like a traditional kilt.
* Tapered front apron. Full width under-apron.
* Traditional waist band.
* Two belt loops for a standard kilt belt.
* No lining.
* Machine sewn.
