Underkilt

[cessna152towser]

My kilt liners in nine different colours came from Anna Manning Porter of G.B.K. Enterprises, Florida, USA.
Her eBay username is gbk* and she currently has the kilt liner listed here:-

Hi All

I may get stoned for this, but...

If one wanted to have something like Active-skins "kilt Liner just go to Wally-World or -Mart and drop about five or six dollars on aladies half-slip and trim the lace off the bottom. What you'll have then iessentially be the Active-skin's "underkilt". Cheap and dirty.

I myself like to take a oversize undershirt cut away the sleeves and crew neck hem it and run a elastic band through the original hemmed bottom via a small slit using a bodkin )ask your wife or a seamstress) sew the ends together and voila! a cotton kilt liner.

Now I stand ready for the stoning! LOL!

Slainte'

I must be missing the point by a mile, so blame it on my age, BUT why go to all that bother when a simple pair of tartan / plain boxers would do ?

I was thinking the very same thing. In fact, in the not so distant past ,when your kilt was delivered by your kilt maker, a pair of tartan boxers were discreetly placed in the box containing the kilt.

Sorry, this has nothing to do really with Paul's issue, but I did find it interesting that in the old c1940 RG Lawrie Highland Dress catalogue that I recently aquired, underkilts are listed right along with kilts, as if they were a standard part of Highland Dress.

They are listed as

Under Trews all-wool tartan 18/6

and are listed both with Gentlemans' and Boys' Highland Dress.

Kind of makes me think of one of my standard responses upon being asked: "...listen, if they HAD underear back in the Eighteenth Century, don't you think that they would have worn it?" Obviously it wasn't unheard of back in the 1940's.

Best
