The KOSB have never worn kilts except for the pipers. As a whole, the regiment didn't adopt tartan until 1882 when they started wearing government tartan (Balck Watch) trews. It was only in 1904 that the Leslie tartan trews were formally issued to all ranks of the regiment with only the pipers wearing Royal Stewart kilts.
