    kilt pin

    I'm brand new at this site, and brand new at wearing a kilt. Can some one please tell me the placement of a pin on my kilt? How far from the bottom, how far in?

    Thank you.

    A little bit in, a little more up.










    I usually put it somewhere around 1½"-2" in, and about 5" up

    You're going to get a whole lot of answers here. Unless you're wearing a uniform, there are no "regulations". Basically, wear it in the lower corner of the outer apron. Look through the pictures and see where you like it best.

    First of all WELCOME. I wear mine about 5-6" up from the bottom and around 3" in from the edge.

    WELCOME!

    Depends on the type of pin, but usually about 4" up and about 3" in, is what looks good in the mirror.
