Utilikilt, what fit?

[arrogcow]

I actually wear mine a little higher than UK recommends, but still lower than a traditional. What size are your jeans? If you're the right size, maybe we can get together and you can try one for fit (I've also sold tons of UK's at festivals, and can at least get you measured right).

Most of the images on the Utilikilts site seem to be of young lean young men. I would like to see some images or hear from the older and considerably more "rotund" audience. The very few images I have seen of the pants level hip huggers seem to have that definite diagonal dive from back to front as an inevitable consequence of the dun-lop forcing the front down beneath the belly without having had the specially ordered modification.

My first dozen are due to arrive in December and as a new Utilikilt distributor I want to be sure NOT to sell them for the "matured" physique IF they will not hang in such a way as to assure total satyisfaction. This may well limit sales, but will definitely result in customers who are pleased, if, like other responsible and reputable distributors, I can better recommend kilts that will fit well.

I don't know about "considerably" more rotund but at 45 I DO have a bit of the dunlop disease. I wear my utilikilts up at my navel as they just don't look right otherwise. I've also found them to run a little big. I have a 38 inch kilt waist but my 36 UK requires a belt and I just don't wear the 38 these days as it's WAY too big.

To wear the UK at the navel, wouldn't that require a custom ordered length as a navel fit would be at least 3 or 4 inches higher?

All mine are in the 35-37 range one may fit you. Give me a day or two to figure out when might me good for us to meet (when is good for you?).

well, I wear a 36 pant... as previously mentioned, it lies... the problem with me is my belly... I have a 42-43 pant line, (just measured). so I don't know if I would be able to squeeze into a 35-37.

Casey Casey Casey,

You're right, you GOTTA ignore the label on your pants...its bogus - you'll see if you measure them. That's why Utilikilts asks us to measure for reality like you've done.

Stay with your real measurements (preferrably taken by someone else) and you'll be fine with your UK's.

Its hard to swallow the truth of the tape, but we just GOTTA ignore the pant sizing...they lie.
