I think many here forget this aspect when viewing attire, particularly when perhaps, most here have new(ish) kilt kit and therefore the attire ought to fit rather more perfectly, than some in Scotland May do.
Most of my kit is second hand, so I totally sympathize with the inherent difficulties that presents for an ideal fit. In typically Scots fashion—despite my Canadian-ness—I'm perfectly happy with making it work
