I have seen these "trews" online that have belt loops. To my understanding trews are worn with braces not a belt, correct?
You're thinking of Argyll trews as opposed to military fishtail trews which are always worn with braces, The Argyll trews have a high kilt waist (unlike tartan trousers which sit on the hips) and have wide belt loops for a proper kilt belt. I think that fishtail trews were designed for sitting down in (mess dinners) and because you don't wear them with a belt you need braces (suspenders) to keep them up.
