    So if you need a belt to help keep the kilt up, wear one; end of story. Practicality rules...
    I'm in the same boat. My kilt straps are maxed, and I could use another inch or two tighter. The belt does help hold it up. At the risk of sounding like a woman, on a "fat day" the kilt fits better. If I've been good about my diet and getting more exercise, the kilt is a bit loose. It's also why I haven't purchased a more expensive kilt yet. My Sport Kilt can adjust a little with the velcro. I want a nice kilt, but since it is made specific to your size, I'm either going to stay where I'm at or get a little smaller...and, I don't have the money to drop on something expensive that will end up being too big in 3 months.

    Maybe I should just go with a great kilt...the whole 9 yards. Then, I could gain or lose waist and I'd still have enough to work with.
