Re: Okay, Lads...here they are!
I think the 24 and the 25 inch kilts are far nicer looking than the 22 inch.

I think the 22" is 'sitting' where it should.
To me the other two look like you're wearing them higher to make sure they land at the right part of your knee.

I agree, but of the two, I think the 24 looks best.

I disagree. The kilt, ideally speaking, should sit at your navel, not at your trouser waist. To me, the Campbell of Argyll kilt looks the best.

I second this completely! And, in my humble opinion I think it would be better to err to high (25) than to err to low (22). In some of the vintage photos I have seen the, what seemed to me to be regular kilt wearers, had their kilts up to what seemed to be their adam's apple almost! In any regard, I definitely like and appreciate the second and third most.

Re: Okay, Lads...here they are!
I cannot tell where the middle of your kneecaps is, nor can I see where your waist is.
Which feels the best? Which one are you most comfortable wearing?
Regards

Re: Okay, Lads...here they are!
I agree with the foregoing. The 22" is too short for you.
Of the 24" and 25" I think the 24" is the better length for you.
