    Looks great! Got that whole "thing" going there!

    I'll give you the SAME advise that I give 99% of the kilt wearers that don't notice it. When the left side of the front apron pulls and puckers... let out on the lower right buckle. The waist buckles are the only ones that need to be snug. The lower right one is there to keep the apron and hips in place. If it's pulled too tight... the apron tries to work the hip size into the underfold. Not good.

    Loosen that dog and go have a Guinness!!!

    Oh yah. Welcome back!
    Arise. Kill. Eat.

    Looks good on ya! I would second Doc and Jimmy's advice. Traditional kilts are meant to be worn on the true waist, not at the modern waist (i.e. on the lower part of the hips.) And ditto to Jimmy's suggestion about the right bottom strap. It really helps, trust me!

    Thanks for the suggestions guys! The bottom strat should fix the only thing I noticed wrong. And you're right I guess it was a little low. Now I know! Awesome.

    Thanks a million guys! Erik
