    I (like the last ten comments) wear my kilt and hose like this photo.

    The top of my kilt feels better when it is snug against the bottom of my ribs and the hem above my patella.

    Just before this picture was taken, a convertible full of young ladies drove by and they shouted "Show some leg!" So we did.

    Top of the knee, maybe a tad more depending on who made the cut.

    Top of the knee, with hose 3-ish fingers below. If it slips down a bit it still looks OK, but I don't like middle of the knee by default because it feels neither here-nor-there. Apart from being traditional, it's sort of an unspoken visual rebuttal to the local "$30 kilt with a t-shirt and sweatsocks" pub crowd who tend to wear them slung low on their hips with the bottom edge halfway down their shins.

    Top of the knee --



    My knees are showing, but you can barely see. I had to resize my picture 4 times to get it small enough for Xmarks to let me upload it.

    I'd agree with Father Bill on this one, mine starts at the top of the knee gradually moves down, until hitched up again.
