Utility Kilt - Special Order, Box Pleat Two Tone Kilts (hybrid)
Size Chart
How to measure for a special order utility kilt
For Men's or Women's Kilts
Do not use previous kilt sizing or pant sizing to order. Whether it is your first time or 10th time ordering a kilt, you want to measure as if it was the 1st.
Waist Measurement:
Because some of our utility kilts have an adjustable waist you must follow these sizing instructions exactly:
Standard, Standard II, and Deluxe Utility Kilts: Order the size measured. Do not change it up or down. Each kilt has an extra set of snaps on the waist to adjust up 1 inch or down one inch.
Ultimate Utility Kilts: Order the size measured. The size you order will be the smallest size the comfort was can go. The elastic in the comfort waist will adjust up 2 inches comfortably. It will adjust up slightly more than that but it is not recommended, though once you go beyond the 2 inches you do start to feel the elastic stretching around your waist. It also has the additional snaps on the waist to adjust up or down 1 inch.
Athlete: Order the size measured. This style does have a velcro waist that will accommodate some quite a bit adjustment.
Wild Outdoor/Wilderness Utility Kilts: Order the size measured. With the Velcro you can, literally, have huge adjustments either way. However, we recommend not going beyond 2 inches up or down of the measured waist size.
Length Measurement:
This really is personal preference. While some say that a kilt, traditionally speaking, should come to high knee, we firmly believe that you should order what is comfortable. A good rule we recommend following if you are new to kilts is going with what your current pair of shorts are. If they are high, mid, or low knee, use them to figure out how long you want it and measure to that point.
Returns
If you follow our measuring video in the videos section below, you will get a kilt that fits. Because this is a custom order item it is not eligible for returns or exchanges due to mis-measuring.
How to measure for a kilt with out measuring the waist.
We DO NOT recommend ordering a special order kilt without measuring. Because these are not eligible for returns, if you get the incorrect size, you will end up with a kilt that you can't return and possibly not be able to use.
A New Angle on Tradition: The Two-Tone Box Pleat Utility Kilt
Our Box Pleat Two-Tone Utility Kilt gives you a bold, customized look by combining two colors in one design. The main color is the outer body of the kilt—the part everyone sees—while the under-pleat color is placed inside the pleats so it only appears as you move, bend, or the pleats open. This special-order listing lets you choose the main color, the under-pleat color, your waist size, length, the style of utility kilt you want, and several additional options throughout the customization process. Most customers use black as the base, but you can mix and match from multiple color combinations to create the exact look you’re going for. The two-tone box-pleat construction adds striking contrast without sacrificing durability or function, giving you a custom-built utility kilt that looks sharp and performs anywhere you wear it.

Common Questions About This Kilt
What can I customize in this special-order kilt?
You can choose the main color, the under-pleat color, your waist measurement, your length, the kilt style, and several additional options that appear during the customization process. This listing is designed for people who want full control over the look and build of their kilt.

Sizing / Measuring
Waist Measurement:
Because some of our utility kilts have an adjustable waist you must follow these sizing instructions exactly:
Standard, Standard II, and Deluxe Utility Kilts: Order the size measured. Do not change it up or down. If in between sizes, you can go to the next size up for a loose fit or the next size down for a more snug fit. Each kilt has an extra set of snaps on the waist to adjust up 1 inch.
Ultimate Utility Kilts: Order the size measured. The size you order will be the smallest size the comfort was can go. The elastic in the comfort waist will adjust up 2 inches comfortably. It will adjust up slightly more than that but it is not recommended, though once you go beyond the 2 inches you do start to feel the elastic stretching around your waist.
Athlete and Wild: Order the size measured. If you are in between sizes you can order the size down or the size up since it has a velcro waist that will accommodate the difference in size.
Length Measurement:
This really is personal preference. While some say that a kilt, traditionally speaking, should come to high knee, we firmly believe that you should order what is comfortable. A good rule we recommend following if you are new to kilts is going with what your current pair of shorts are. If they are high, mid, or low knee, use them to figure out how long you want it and measure to that point.
You MUST measure in order to get the correct size. Please visit our measuring section of the website to determine which size is best for you. DO NOT use your pants or jeans size to determine your kilt size.

Metal Hardware Finish
Chose the color of any metal that is on your kilt. This can include snaps, buckles, D rings, and clips (depending on which style of kilt you are getting)
Fabrics
All of our solid colors come in multiple fabrics including poly-cotton blend, poly-cotton ripstop, poly-spadex athletic, and 100% stretch cotton.
- Poly-Cotton blend - Medium to heavy weight fabric. Perfect for every day use. Machine wash and hang dry
- Poly-Cotton ripstop - Light weight material. Ideal for more strenuous activity where a heavier kilt would not be comfortable. Popular among outdoors users. Machine wash and hang dry
- Poly-Spandex - Light weight material (even more than ripstop). Ideal fabric for exercising or other similar activities. Very popular as lounge kilts due to its light weight. Machine wash and hang dry
- 100% Stretch Cotton - Perfect for those looking for a 100% natural fabric kilt
The tartan fabrics come in three different materials:
- Wool - Same wool fabric used in our premium and standard traditional kilts. Lots of tartans available. Good for many activities above. Machine wash on delicate and hang dry
- Poly-viscose - Medium to light weight fabric that is the ideal 'wash and wear' tartan. It is popular for just about any activity listed above. Machine wash and hang dry
- Acrylic - Medium weight fabric that we recommend only when either the wool or the polyviscose is not available. Colors are not as nice as the others and you must take great care cleaning the fabric. Machine wash on delicate and hang to dry
Matching Flashes Options
There are three options for the flashes you can choose from:
- Add matching flashes (main color) - Flashes will be made from the same material that you chose as the main (base) color of your kilt
- Add matching flashes (under pleats color) - Flashes will be made from the same material that is under your pleats.
- Add matching flashes (both colors, together) - Flashes have two parts on each leg (total of 4) For this one will be made from the main color and the other will be made from the under pleats color
