Also known as a Military roll pleat. This Scottish kilt is hand stiched here at ScotClans. We make matching flashes for you as well.
The Military Box can be pleated to stripe or to sett. We will contact you to find out which you would like and can send photos of the options.
We make this kilt with 8 yards of the heavyweight tartan.
To hand stitch this will take 6 to 8 weeks. It is possible for shorter deadlines, contact us if you need it for a specific date.
Please note a Military box doesn't have a third buckle or belt straps.
Taking your measurements
Measurements are quite simple to take and we will check them over before making your kilt.
You will need someone else to measure you. Stand straight looking forward while they take your measurements.
Kilt Waist: This is taken around the 'natural waist'. This needs to be quite a tight measurement, the natural waist is usually around the level of the belly button.
Kilt Seat: This is a loose measurement taken around the widest part - so usually the widest part of the bottom. The tape measure needs to be quite loose for this - a good idea is to keep 3 fingers inside the tape measure.
Kilt Length: Still standing straight, looking forward measure from 1 inch above the natural waist (so belly button level) straight down to either the top of the knee or the middle of the knee depending on your preference. Bending the knee slightly can reveal where the middle of the knee is.
