The longer length is for larger waists. I have a 36 inch waist and could easily use a 4 or 4.5 yard kilt. I bought 5 yards because I had the same questions. Since the ends are un-pleated, about a yard, the rest is what ends up pleated. If you get 4 yards that means about 3 yards pleated, probably plenty.
