The kit

[Father Bill]

Please remember, I made this mistake when I first started wearing the kilt, I wore it at the waist. Do not do that, you will look foolish. Kilts are supposed to hang no lower than mid-knee. So for me, personally, I put all the way up to the top of the belly button completely covering it which gives me the desired mid-knee look. I imagine this is the same for everyone.

Depending on where your navel is, and who the kiltmaker is. Not all navels are born in the same spot, and some kiltmakers create them to be worn at different heights. The mid / top of the knee is the measurement to use. To achieve that, mine is well above my belly button.

What do you call a hula-hoop with a thumb-tack stuck in from the outside?
. . . a navel destroyer.

I go with mid-knee. It is what I am comfortable with.
