problems with the top half

[Moose McLennan]

Actually, it probably feels like it's up to your ribcage but it doesn't really look that way to someone who's looking at you. AA

The top of the kilt actually touches my second rib! It's up there alright

The amount of warm material around my midriff actually makes me want to avoid a belt, although maybe it will be needed to visually shorten the line.

BTW Bubba, great pic. Isn't the Cameron of Erracht a beautiful tartan?

The belt does help to break up the straight line...as would a sporran and strap.

I guess with it being a military issue kilt it IS supposed to be way up there...those with a better background in the military uniforms know better than me...it would, as part of a uniform be worn with a tunic that would come down to the waist?

Best

Yeah, I love that tartan. The point I was going for is I felt like you do about it at first, and I found wearing the vest open straightens the body line nicely and makes it look a bit more put together. I'm not that hung up on it now, but it did bother me a bit at first. There are different style sport vests as well as leather so you might look around and pick one up that suits you. Best of all, they work as well with a T-shirt as with a button up shirt, long sleeve or short.
