    Yeah, I tried a belt and waistcoat one time because I had a new beckle I was dying to wear. I decided, "Hekc with what they say about no belt with a vest; I'm wearing it anyway."

    Well They--whoever they are--were right. My vest poked out in front over the buckle and looked kind of funny, so I took the d&%$ed thing off and went without the bolt.

    I loved that buckle, too.

    You should have ditched the vest and worn the belt!

    My opinion - a kilt does not look right without a wide belt.
