Correction: My USA Casual kilts use 3 1/2 yards or so.

Clan.com also sells an essential 8 yard kilt. They have buckles, sit at natural waist, have canvas lining, etc. They are pretty much traditional kilts but made from Marton Mills Polyviscose material. They cost around $250 before using the xmarks the Scott discount.

They have a blind hem stitch at the bottom. Would I call them a bespoke kilt, no. They seem to have the interfacings that the 5 yard kilts usually do not have.

The kilts that I have from the UK in this category are all sewn with hidden stitching in the pleats. None(hand or machine sewn) are top stitched.

I decided against a Scottish kilt maker because they offered 3 different machine finishes on an 8 yard wool kilt. I took them off of my list
Only 3 1/2 yards? The website says 4-6 yards. If you don’t mind me asking, are you very slim? That might explain the low yardage.
