For the nine days I'd been wearing this kilt, I'd just been securing it at the waist with a kilt pin, then putting a belt over it. Today I added my own strap idea based on this.



Basically, I took apart one of my cloth belts, attached the rings to a small piece of the belting to the inside of the outer apron, attached a long piece of the belting to the outside of the under apron.
I pass the long belt through the buttonhole, bring it around the fell, and attach it to the rings on the outer apron.



After installing it, I went for a walk/jog with the dogs, and I was really impressed with the comfort of this closure system.

Any thoughts?

This wouldn't have worked on regular tartan, because of how it breaks the pattern - on the fabric, the order for the stripes is burgundy, green, blue, orange - but on the pleats, that is reversed.

Very clever. I like it very much.

Bravo on the kilt in general and the nicely designed closure system

What a great job you've done, the pleats are knife edge and the colours are superb. They are the best "Weathered" colours I have seen in a long time.
