Waistcoat and belt

[McMurdo]

In my opinion anyway, a belt should never be worn with a waistcoat, if your kilt does not fit properly I'd suggest a better fitting kilt.

Oh, the kilt fits quite well. Rocky does fine work. Unfortunately, my shape is the problem, specifically the lack of hips/posterior and the excess of abdomen. I have the same difficulty with trousers. Wear a stout 1 3/4 inch belt with them, and still find myself hiking them up from time to time. Perhaps if I lose another 50 lbs it would solve it.

I would still go with the braces (suspenders). There is a type that fastens on the side only.

I agree that the clips could damage the kilt, so I would suggest sewing a tab on the inside (catching the hair canvas interlining) and clip the braces to them.

I have used them for years with work clothing, and find them much more comfortable than the usual "fore and aft" type.

Those sideclips are interesting. I will look into them.
