How to measure for a special order traditional 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.

Sizing / Measuring

It is extremely important you follow our measuring video and order the size you need based on your measurement, not pants size. All of men's pants are labeled 2-4 inches smaller than what they actually measure. Please see our measuring video below or checkout or measuring page here.

The size that you choose for your order will be the smallest setting on the buckle straps (i.e. a size 36 adjusts from a 36 up to just under a 39.5). Depending on where you want the buckle to end on your waist will determine your size. A good rule of thumb to follow is to go down 1-2 inches from your measured waist size. That will put you in the middle of the buckle straps (i.e. 39 or 40 measured would order a 38).

You MUST measure in order to get the correct size. DO NOT use your pants or jeans size to determine your kilt size.

Returns

If you follow our measuring video above 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.

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.


This is the UTK Traditional Scottish non-wool kilt. Made from an acrylic or polyviscose fabric, this kilt will give you a great kilt for a low price. The kilt is perfect for any situation like ren faires or Scottish festivals where a wool kilt may get damaged or dirty. It is machine washable so it is much easier to clean than a typical wool kilt. While traditional kilts are made from wool, the non-wool kilt gives you an affordable option that is not cheap looking or just a costume. While most wear these kilts for in-formal occasions, we have sold these to many to use for weddings and other formal situations when budgets did not allow for a more expensive, wool kilt. This is also the perfect kilt for those unsure if wearing a kilt is for them. You really will be surprised at the quality of our non-wool traditional kilts

Features Include:

  • 3 buckle closure
  • 2 large belt loops for belt and sporran belt
  • Pleated to the sett
  • Acrylic or polyvisocse fabric
  • Amazing price
  • Matching tartan flashes included

UT Kilts Acrylic vs Polyviscose

We currently have two fabrics we use for non-wool traditional kilts: Acrylic and polyviscose. The kilts are constructed in the exact same way, but with different fabrics. Polyviscose is the preferred fabric as it gives better color (similar to wool) than acrylic and tends to hang and 'wing' better than acrylic. However, Acrylic does have more tartans to choose from as we are still building out our polyviscose tartan offerings. We always recommend polyviscose if the tartan you want is available.

Fly plaid and Ladies Sash

The fly plaid is worn with a kilt jacket over the left shoulder. Typically it is only worn for very formal events.

The Ladies sash can be worn in many different ways, but is most commonly worn over the shoulder and then pinned near the hip.

It is recommended to order these now if you ever think you will want them. Ordering them later is possible, but they may or may not be from the same die lot of fabric you currently have.
