FTA:
"Cameron of Erracht Trousers in the large military set with a tartan repeat of 9". The tartan was matched and had a Victorian trousers cut to them consistent with common trousers of the late 1850s"
"The kilts were made of the same Cameron of Erracht. They were not pleated to the line as is common in military regiments, but to the set as seen in civilian kilts. The kilts are very odd and unlike any kilt before or since thanks to their unqualified manufactures. They were box pleated, and used two tartan straps that buckled into suspender buckles on either hip. Because of their lack in size variation, suspenders were worn with them.
