    I would say you could move the strap about 2" without concern. If you move it more, the edge of the under apron may feel uncomfortable on the back of the leg.

    Is this a non issue, something that only works if you move the strap a little bit, or do you cut off the excess?

    The inner apron can be folded back on itself if neccessary. I think cutting would be a last resort. There is a thread somewhere here about reducing a kilt by 10". I think BarbT either started it or posted.
