Well said Pour1Malt.
Since saying I'd try one ages ago-which I did, theyn have become a part of my wardrobe-depending on activity, which kilt and the weather: and will say that they can enhance the kilt.
The only comments were from a certain lady-who after her expected rudery* about 'petticoats', said it was a good idea.
*She will scratch the eyes out of anyone brave enough to call my kilt a skirt-but reserves the right to herself to make comments aimed at embarrassing me.
Really the whole underwear thing, be it regimental or whatever is a bit of a bore, for it is up to the individual and a chap wearing underpants/underkilt/liner is no less of a man & kilt wearer than one going without.
Remember the long shirt tails-as obvious in that film with Liam Neelson -Rob Roy?
That drawers were made available to highland regiments, and were on occasion mandatory wear: which of course makes a nonsense of claims about 'going regimental'.
Certainly I'm not the least bit impressed by anyone who makes a big thing about going regimental, and it is only a hero who asks me 'If I'm a true Scot'.
