Beer Gut + Traditional Kilt = Barrel? Help!
I need some advice gents, I have a beer gut. No sense stepping around it. I ordered a traditional SWK regular kilt. I measured an inch or two above the belly button as requested, ordered a 50" and its too big.
No problem, I can exchange. Here is the thing, if I wear it where I am supposed to wear it, because of my big *** gut, I look like Ed Grimley.
Is a kilt belt meant to be orn up high or at the pant level. I love the kilt, and maybe I am just being sensitive, but my wife was like -- you have got to pull that down some. The trouble of course if I do is that it goes below my belly.
I would really appreciate any advice anyone can offer, if you have photos of what a traditional is supposed to look like on a big guy, I'd love to see em. If you think i need to forgo a traditional kilt, which would be sad for me because I want to wear it for historical reasons relating to scouting.
Sure appreciate the advice.
