On further review, chasem is correct. The loops are centerd with respect to the pleats (14 to the outside of each, but when the apron is centered with the stripe in the middle (Officers'-style apron - other ranks had a square centered in the middle) the left loop lines up in the center. I don't know why the kiltmaker put them so close together, so I moved the left loop six stripes over. that seems about right to me now.

Thanks chasem, for pointing that out

Turpin,

That's a really nice kilt. I'm fond of the pletting to the stripe as well.

I like your belt buckle but I can't quite make out...is it 3 dogs?

Enjoy it. It looks great!

It's this one, from Kiltstore. After looking at page after page of the same-looking stuff, this one jumped out and bit me.
