About sizes.

Ok, due to some recent concerns about my weight I gave my self a once over with a measuring tape to see where some weight might be hiding, and I came up with a question somehow...

Ok. So, you have your standard kilt measurements. Waist, hips, drop, rise, etc.

Now your hip measurement is one thing, and it determines how your kilt hangs.

My question. And I will use my self as an example. Both of my thighs measure in at or around 30 inches. And I am somewhat bowlegged due to leg injuries and what not.

Now, if mid thigh measurement expands beyond your hip measurement, doesn't this make the kilt fit poorly or hang funny? I know with my USAK casual, (Which I love dearly actually) it hangs terribly. The two side pleats seperating the front and the back of the kilt remain bellowed out and well, unpleated. Does having two 30 inch thighs crammed in to a kilt come out to about 60 inches of measured space being taken up? Especially if your knees bow out beyond your hips? Is there a way to measure a kilt and correct for this effect?

Does any of this make sense?
