    There are various ways of measuring the size of the kilt, but probably the most intuitive and practical way is to buckle the straps like they would be buckled whilst wearing it (at the tightest/first set of strap holes), and lay the kilt on a flat surface. Measure the distance of the inside of the waistband from one side to the other, then multiply that by 2. You can repeat this with the buckles at the last strap holes for the larger adjustment of the waist.

    The hip size is a bit harder to truly measure but can be approximated by measuring across the fell area, still with the kilt buckled and laid flat.
