I clicked on this thread with great interest but it hasn't answered a related question/issue that I'm dealing with...

I have a wide leather belt I ordered from Sport Kilt, along with my first "kilt". I soon added a proper kilt to my wardrobe. When I wear this belt with my USA Kilts 8 yard 13oz wool kilt with 2 straps (one left, one right) it doesn't lay well against the kilt straps. I currently don't have any photographic evidence of this, but I thought I'd see if anyone else notices this happening. The belt seems to ride on top of the buckles, nor will it stay flush against the kilt in the back.

The belt has not seen a great deal of wear yet, and is still a bit stiff. It needs to be re-tightened occasionally when worn, as well. Perhaps some more break-in is necessary?

I try to wear the belt a little below the top of the kilt, and it tends to droop in front. This make sense to me given a natural "slope" (as Steve calls it) from front to back over the hips. The weight of the buckle also contributes to this a little bit. I do not run the belt through the two loops.

My waist is smaller than my hips, so there is some taper there, and I ware the top of the kilt at my belly button or slightly above. There may be other details I haven't thought to provide yet, but hopefully this is either normal, or someone will be able to help me solve the problem.

Thanks,
