Proper terminology?

[Macman]

I grew up on "wear the kilt". Maybe it came from having only one in the family that my da and three brothers had to share.

"I'm wearin' the kilt the nicht, Da."
"Nae, Davey, yer brither Rab's got dibs on't."
Says Jamie, "But Da, I need it since I'm takin' Mary McGregor tae the dance!"
Says Da, "But Rab's pipin' doon at the Legion Hall, sae ye cannae have it!"
And what Da says goes.

Somehow I knew I would not get a yea or nae answer...

We just can't resist! Seriously, though, I agree with Colin and Daz. Even the song "Donald, Where's Your Trousers?" (not that it's the gospel truth) has the line: "To wear the kilt is my delight". That's the only documentation I have, though.

It seems to be from the Military, Scots regiments either wear Trews or The Kilt
