I was surprised to see a Lamont tartan readily available in a non-wool kilt, able to be custom sized, and had to jump on it. Especially for the price compared to the wool option at the mills. I'm a bigger guy so it would cost a fortune for a customer woven Lamont usually. And this kilt would be perfect until I get off my ass, lose weight and know where I'm gonna be steady at for size. Anyways, I got my measurements in including a 54" waist. I measured 55" but and inch wasn't going to make a big difference but the price cutoff was $20 cheaper for the 54" I think. I went with that. About a month later it came. Seems well made and about what I expected. I read some bad reviews on a 3rd party site for Scottish Kilt Shop and was a little worried. But it was good. I tried it on and it was loose. With the buckles all the way in it worked but feels like if I suck in even a little bit the kilt's gonna fall off. I remeasured and I'm still 55". So a kilt that's supposed to be an inch tighter feels really loose. But I Like I said, and inch shouldn't make a huge difference. I'll get a belt and see how that helps out. Just disappointed the buckles were as tight as they could be. Maybe I'll do some altering of those too and can make it work without distorting the pleats or shrinking the apron too much. Overall, looks good and was as expected for the price and material. A little loose but I'll manage.
