Fully traditional: 8+ yards of tartan and up where they're been for centuries.
-
Something modern in style and/or fabric but high like they're supposed to be.
-
Tartan front and back but the hips are doin' the carryin'.
-
Leading edge modern and that means non-tartan and low-rise.

Somehow you've missed me.

Up high for me
Box or knife, wool, poly-viscose, acrylic or poly-cotton---I wear mine up high. As I recently mentioned to Josh at NeoKilt, I used to be a "hippy" but I've gotten over that. I like a 2" rise!

Kilt Survey
I have a mixture of plan and tartan kilts, but only one of them is a traditional high-waist. I prefer the kilt to sit on the hips, like trousers. All too often I see wedding parties and the like with the kilt dropping down to the hips, so that the hem is below the knee.

I answered traditionally, but I also wear my casual kilts on the waist like they are made for. The full 8 yard trad. goes up higher as it should.

8 yards of 16 oz Dress Gordon up nice and high! I like the looks of the moderns, but will most likely stick with traditionals.

I wear all wool and just above the navel the way God intended. Ha.
I find it is not only very comfortable, but kind of supports the aging back and paunchy middle (which is slowly disappearing).

My UKs are worn at jeans level.
My SWK is worn at the navel.
My tank is worn 2 inches above the navel.
So I'm pretty much all over the map

I like kilts both ways. I like high rise for 8 yrd traditional but prefer to wear an 8yrd or 5 yrd where I wear my jeans for casual everyday. I find long periods in high rise trads. confining after a while. I like the freedom of movement and less material up my body in summer and casual settings.
