Loincloth — The Mens Room on True Nudists

Some people in a group suggested making loincloths from parts of a t shirt.
One suggestion was to cut off the sleeves, and run a string through the hem,
Others said cut off the bottom, make panels the width you want and do the same.

I took an old t shirt night before last and cut off the sleeves and the bottom.
I ran shoelaces through the hems on the sleeves and made a loincloth.
The front is just covered. but probably wouldn't be for someone who is well endowed.
Back won't cover the top and bottom of the crack at the same time.
The next evening I worked with the bottom
The length wasn't a problem,
Circumference was almost 4', so I made 2 loincloths!
One with 2 12" panels, and one with one 8" and the other 16".
Adequate coverage in all cases.
May make the uneven one 8" on both sides.
Question now is where can I wear them that I can't be nude?
What's left of the t-shirt could be worn as a sleeveless crop top.

I think you're talking about a langot.

[quote]But there are shorter, lighter weight kilts available.[/quote] Exactly. Although I live in the northeastern US and frequent the mountains, I don't live in the Highlands - nor do I have any Scots heritage. I use an Americanized utility kilt that is cotton (not my preferred fabric for hiking but it works when it's warm enough for a kilt) and of sturdy construction. I got the shortest version available, likely not acceptable to a Scot but well above my knees and very comfortable. I find anything with two leg holes to be constraining, regardless of the fabric or looseness, though I recognize that this is a matter of personal preference.

I know what Im talking about, Im a Scot and I own two. A kilt has to be a certain length, stopping just above the kneecap. Anything shorter is a mini skirt. Just say you like to wear a miniskirt while hiking.

How do you keep it from falling off?[/quote] You breathe in, wrap the sarong tightly around your waist, then roll the top hem down over itself for enough revolutions to adjust the length and ensure a tight band of cloth at the top. If this gets wet, the fabric grips even more tightly to itself and you will have to unroll the hem to remove the sarong. If done properly, this method of securing will last for hours. Physical movement at the waist will contribute to gradually making the waist looser.
