sitting issues

[Cassidy]

I dunno. I have a similar problem, and I chalk it up to my body shape. My kilt usually brushes the top of my knee, and I wear it well above the navel. Yet the thighs get a LOT of seat- to the point where sometimes I for the sake of the chair's owner regret going regimental.

I sweep the pleats as best I can, naturally.

I seem to have a similar problem and have chaulked it up to being a relatively new kilt wearer. The pleats are swept as best I can following Hamish's fine tutorial video, however as one poster stated there seems to be a lot of thigh touching the chair at times. Perhapse I too am not doing something correctly. My kilt falls to the top of the knee, is worn above the navel, and would be considered a 'tank' . Any advice from you long-term wearers, or is it just a matter that has to be gotten 'used to'? I can tell when I don't get the pleats swept correctly as I can feel the fabric bunching up under me at which time a slight rise and re-sweep will correct that problem.
