    They do, there is a little extra "room" when you dont have the belt on perse, (In my expierence), but once its on, you cant tell.

    The buckle may "slop" a little, i.e., slide some due to the extra room, but it'll be OK once you get it on snug. (If it's not snug, it may slip sideways a bit during the wearing thereof.)

    I would recommend a standard kilt belt for a starter as well. You can always change the buckle for a different look and level of formality. If you wear the kilt mostly during the day, I would suggest a dark brown since that's "traditional" for day wear--if anything is really traditional any more.

    P. S. You ought to get one like CavScout makes since it'll still be around when your grandchildren are old.
