How to Measure Your Kilt
Precise measurements ensure a perfect, comfortable fit for your traditional Scottish kilt. Our guide walks you through each measurement point with care and accuracy.
H to P = Kilt length from hip to floor
H = Around waist measurement
M = Around hip measurement
Place a cloth measuring tape just above your eyebrows and loosely measure round the circumference of your head. To ensure absolute accuracy, repeat this procedure two or three times carefully.
If your measurement falls between sizes, always select the next largest size for optimal comfort.

How to Measure for Hats
