I believe I have seen a thread that may have addressed this question, but can not find it. I can't remember if it was a subconversation of a similar topic either...making it more difficult for me to locate. So, apologies in advance if this is a recently repeated question:

What is the "proper" location for a kilt pin? A simple question, but I have seen everything from just below the hip--very near the top...to the in and up about 2 inches from the bottom corner.

I'm sure the answer is "do what you want", but by asking I am hoping to get a better understanding. Meaning, are there regional differences, clan differences, did it change throughout time...etc. Are more linear pins for the bottom whereas rounded pins are for the top...

I enjoy seeing all the pictures and see the pins located differently. I guess I am just wondering if it is truly a personal preference or if there are in fact historical references that suggest one location over another.

I should say, I DO know not to pin the two aprons together
