ust measure your waist where you intend to wear the kilt…this should be around your navel, about an inch or two above your hip bone. Order the nearest whole size to your actual measurement. Odds are it will be about 2-4″ above your normal pants size: i.e. if you wear a 36 in your jeans, you will take a 38 or 40 in your kilt. But this is why measuring is so important…some guys maybe 6″ difference from jean size to kilt size.
