I'm new to the kilt world and learning as much as i can just about everything cuz i'm in the research stage of making a kilt

i've heard many people talk about a kilt pin and that it's work on the lower corner of the front apron? the place i read this mentioned that it's used to weigh down the apron, but the pics i've seen they so small so is it really put through both aprons and held down that way?

anyone who would like to enlighten me more about this would be great
