(Measurements in inches)

 Made to measure kilts require three different measurements: waist, seat and length. Men's kilts traditionally hang about mid knee, or top of the knee if it is a military style kilt.

Waist: Measure snugly around your waist at the height of your belly button.

Seat: Put your feet together and measure around the broadest part of the hips and bum.

Length: Kneel down, keeping your back straight, and measure from the belly button to the floor.

 UNLESS you are looking for a military style kilt, then (kneeling the same way) you measure from the belly button to the top of the knee. It is especially important to have second person to measure this because if you attempt to measure yourself, it is likely you will lean forward and accidentally alter the measurement..

Please note:

The length of your kilt drop will depend on how high you want to wear the kilt on your waist. If wearing a short jacket such as a Prince Charlie, you may want to have your kilt an inch or two longer so that it sits higher on your waist. However, standard kilts should always be worn to the middle of the knee cap, while military kilts are worn a little shorter to the top of the knee cap. 

Where you wear the kilt on your waist is entirely up to you, and is down to personal preference. However the standard height is around the navel and as a result it is worth noting that your kilt waist size may be slightly larger than your trouser waist size.
