Unfortunately at 5'11" I still weigh 250 even though I was up to 300 at one point. Most of the excess is in my (beer)belly. I can't find a pair of pants to fit me properly. With a 42" waste I still have no butt. Pants makers seem to think that if you have a large waist that you are large everywhere so I have this mass of extra material in the back that my wife calls droopybutt. Kilts obviously don't have that problem. My main problem is that with my belly the size it is it is hard to keep the kilt riding around my naval. It tends to want to fall to my hips even with a good belt. Pulling up the kilt is still better than having my backside slipping off.
