    On a related note, and this may have been covered someplace else, I know Rocky sells his casuals in a "jeans waist" length and a "true waist" length. Now, as I have worm p@nts for a number of years, I am more accustomed to wearing kilts at the "jeans waist". Not a big deal with my UK, or the SWK either, for that matter. I have been thinking about getting the USAK in "true waist", but I sit often at my job, and was wondering if a kilt at "true waist" would feel too tight when sitting.

    It's actually quite comfortable and provides great lumbar support.

    USAK will make your casual kilt to whatever length you tell them to. If you want a low rider kilt to fit like your UK, measure your waist at that point and then the drop from that point and that's what your kilt will be. If you want it to ride up under your ribs, give them those measurements. Somewhere in between? Well you get the idea
