Yeah... from all I'd read, I knew deep down that the belt wasn't meant to help secure the kilt, but I was just wondering, since the recent arrival of my first "semi-tank", I realized that (against my wife's advice), I ordered a waist measurement probably an inch bigger than I should have done,
so right out of the box, I had to strap the kilt on using a hole closer to the inside end than standard (which is theoretically the middle hole on the strap), and am a little concerned about further weight loss (which would otherwise be a good thing) leaving the kilt much looser than I'd like.
I was thinking a belt might be a potential solution to that concern.
