    I usually wear a belt when I wear a vest if it is quite short. And I have to attach my "pockets" somewhere. I use cartridge pouches that I carry on the right and left. This way I can store all my things without having to carry a sporran, or worse, a handbag.

    I'm a little confused.
    In another video, wearing a belt with a dress sporran was discouraged due to the belt buckle scratching the cantle.
    Is there an exception with a vest?

      Actually, a belt should never be worn with a waistcoat regardless of whether you're looking at highland wear or ordinary business attire.

      @@TheJTMcDaniel Is correct... never wear a belt if you have on a vest or a dress sporran (Day or Semi Dress sporrans are fine with a belt).

    There has been those that have said, "when wearing a vest there is no need to wear a belt", or even saying one shouldn't wear the belt & buckle when a vest covers it. I wear the belt & buckle anyhow. I wear the kilt in Australia mostly for Scottish Country Dance socials etc.
    EDIT: I see my question has already been answered by others here.

    I want to have a go at that shop and burn down my credit card! BTW if you are wearing the vest you can wear braces or suspenders under it to keep the kilt planted. As a piper, I do not have access to my hands to tug the kilt up when it slides down when not wearing a belt.

      You don't have to....it will also "clank" when it hits the cantel of the full dress sorren when you sit down so is sometimes left off for that reason also.
      He might be going to a warm house and anticipating relaxing the coat and vest during the evening and wants the belt to complement the relaxed look?

      Brad, it could possibly cost you between $700 to 1,000 depending on the weight and the yardage of tartan used to make the kilt. When you make a purchase they could ask you 1 which tartan 2 weight of the fabric 3 length in yards. Good luck.

    Number one mistake...wearing a belt with a vest. I wouldn't call him an expert dresser. But an expert salesman.
