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.
