    It has every appearance of an ordinary civilian kilt: tartan in Ancient Colours, pleated to the set, civilian style straps & buckles.

    Yet, it bears numerous stamps the likes of which I've only seen on military kilts.

    Can anyone guess what sort of kilt this is?
    It's not regimental. Two thoughts.

    1. It was a private/personal kilt made for someone, likely to be an officer, by the regimental stitch. I've seen things like this before, especially wartime era kilts.

    2. It's more recent and the lining has been reused, presumably for the original owner.
