    [QUOTE=Tobus;1098510] Is it possible to just replace the original straps on a kilt like this with slightly longer ones to cheat 3" from it? Or would that cause some weird issues with the aprons not overlapping correctly, etc.?QUOTE]

    I followed some advice from Robert MacDonald of West Coast Kilts and altered an MOD kilt (Seaforth kilt that still had basting stitches) with a 33 inch waist to fit my 36 inch waist by making adjustments to both sides of the apron. I then let a little bit out on the under apron. I did the work myself and am quite happy.
