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.
Most sizing issues come from using jean size or guessing. Follow the measuring video above to ensure the correct fit.

Waist Measurement
Order the exact waist size you measure. Do not size up or down.
GlenLoch, GlenCrae, and GlenTorin Utility Kilts – Include waist snaps that allow adjustment 1 inch up or 1 inch down from the size ordered.
Ultimate Utility Kilts – The size ordered is the smallest setting. The Comfort Waist elastic comfortably adjusts up to 2 inches larger and also includes snaps for 1 inch up or down adjustment.
Athlete Utility Kilts – Feature a Velcro waist that allows generous adjustment while still ordering your measured size.
Wild Horizon Utility Kilts – The Velcro waist allows wide adjustment, but we recommend staying within 2 inches up or down from your measured size.
Length Measurement
Length is personal preference. Traditional kilts typically fall around mid-knee, but you should choose what feels comfortable. A helpful guide is to measure a pair of shorts you like and use that measurement as a starting point, adjusting slightly if needed to land at your preferred mid-knee position. Always measure directly. Do not use pant or jean size to determine your kilt size.
