So here's the deal. I'm 6'8". My measurement around my actual waist i.e. My belly and not where I wear my jeans is 48. I was using USA kilts measuring guide to try to figure out my drop. I can't tell if it's 24 or 25. Going to try the towel method. My other question is...this is my first kilt, I don't want to spend a lot because right now I will just be going to my first Highland games. So what is the difference of the PV kilts when ordering from USA kilts vs the companies like Heritage of Scotland or buyakilt.com? The latter seem to have the cheaper prices for a semi tradition kilt with buckles etc. Help me out please
