Wearing Irish Sweaters wtih Kilts, Belt or no belt?

[Macman]

I recall wearing our web belts over our wooly pullies, which were worn over the kilt, whilst in the army reserves. Because the sweater was quite tight to the body, the belt over top looked kind of cool. Now I wear sweaters, including my Aran sweater, over the kilt. Since the belt can't be seen, I consider it optional.

I've worn my belt under the sweater/jumper now and then, when it's likely I'll take the sweater/jumper off and want the belt. Doesn't work with the slim styled sweater, though. "Imprint", as mentioned above.

I agree. For the type of sweater you are talking about, wearing it outside/over the kilt looks the best. As for the belt, since it is under the sweater and not seen, the option is yours as to if you want to wear one.
