I received the final skirt today. I order a 2XL....on the sizing chart it said 39-41 inch waist... it was way to small, I could barely get it past my knees!!! http://a.co/0Bpcofh

That one is going back, along with the long white and black. http://a.co/9SwnvFO

Apparently you did not factor in the Asian measurement component 2XL is the same as -(minus) 2XL in USA sizing !
Sad that you have fallen into the trap - the sizing chart is a wishing well of measurements to lure you to the sirens call of fitted clothing !
"YES SKIRTING MATTERS"!
"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

Amazon made the return pretty simple. For the black and white one, they provided me with a return shipping label. As soon as I dropped it off at UPS, I got my refund. As for the other that directly shipped from a China, I got a refund but don't have to return it.

Make a gift of it to a thrift shop or to your wife if it will fit her. :D

I gave the 2XL to a girl that's a size 4-6 or so... was just a little big on her. She said it was cute and is keeping it.

The sizing was way off!!
