Kilts in the English Civil Wars/War of the Three Kingdoms
I was thinking about Highlanders who may have fought for Charles I with Montrose and later for Charles II and if they would have worn kilts. I can't seem to find any photos of what the Scottish Royalist armies of this time would have worn, aside from the lowlanders who wore the same as most English troops of the time. What other sorts of clothing would they have worn? Doublets/soldier coats? Non-tartan hose? Did they still wear the bonnets? Mortuary hilts rather than basket hilts? Inquiring minds would like to know!
