SWK Economy and Thrifty kilts

[Galb]

Here's one for you. I am 5'8", and that's a standard 24" length. Doesn't look too long, does it? Before you hem, try it on, adjusting the bottom for the proper position at the knees, and see how it looks.

I don't think it looks too long at all. I'm 5'9" and I wondered the same thing when I got mine. Then I did the "kneeling test". I passed. If the kilt just barely touches the ground when you kneel, then you are golden. The front apron shouldn't rumple up. Easy.

But think of it this way, better to have the kilt a wee bit long, than to have it too short.

Case in point...
