I have a hand-sewn kilt that I had made when I was last in Braemar. It fits like a glove and is such a joy to wear. When I was measured in Scotland it was much more thorough than just the three measurements. Since I'm wide and short the normal manner of making splits doesn't work the best for me. I compared the measurements and the feel, and started making my own kilts. I have some casual kilts as well, but now they are to my measurements and feel good to wear.
