    Ain't that the truth.

    Put simply, I got careless. For my first, I must've measured myself at least 5 times and checked the allowance with the retailer. The NeoKilt fits beautifully. The second one, I also checked with the retailer and re-measured because it would sit differently. Slightly less well because SportKilt do off-the-peg. But the elastic makes up the slack. Then I order from ... someone else, who also does off-the-peg. Knowing I'm a 35", I didn't check to see how close a 35" I am. But they're only available in even numbers. I engaged in wishful thinking and ordered down...

    But at least I know the length is good. All three are exactly the same length and sit just right.

    Wade.
