    5 yard Vs. 8 yard

    What is the difference of a 5 yard kilt and an 8 yard kilt? Is the 8 yard longer down to your legs or .....?

    I'm thinking of buying a 5 yard casual kilt from Scotweb and I was wondering if it is as long as the 8 yard? When I see guys wearing the 8 yard, they have it so high up...like it's pulled over the hip bones. Is the casual shorter?
