    I have been on a variety of internet forums for a long time and this is one of the strangest threads I've ever seen. To the OP, if this was a troll, well done. You certainly hooked many.

    As a victim of many internet trolls over the years, I can tell you one thing.

    I wouldn’t waste my time doing such a thing, I have a life to live and I won’t be wasting it trolling people on the internet.

    If you are not interested in having another valued member of your forum, that’s fine with me.

    If you are serious, perhaps something like these might be the best bet?

    Legs would be covered, hose would meet the leggings and it would certainly be less bulk under the kilt than regular trousers.

    Well yea simple trousers is all I had in mind, you think I’d wear jeans under it or something? Nah, one of my friends regularly wears kilt, trousers underneath and the hose which is where I got the idea from.

    Not be mean, the stuff you say gets stranger and stranger. Soooo... your friend tucks his trouser legs into his hose? How do you know he has hose on if he doesn't tuck his trouser legs in them? I presume you meant kilt hose. Otherwise, what would be the point of mentioning he wears socks? Oh, do tell.

    I wonder if this thread has passed the point of useful discussion.

    This thread is starting to remind me of the kid a while back who bought a ghille shirt with his kilt from a tourist trap and insisted that it was the traditional shirt to wear with a kilt, despite the shirt being a recent invention.

    Amateurkiltsman, you do you (and your friend can do what he likes) but realise that trousers under a kilt isn’t the way a kilt is intended to be worn. I still imagine it looking something like this (but hopefully with a proper length kilt):

    I suppose there is precedent from way back when the modern thing all started with the visit of George IV (but his were pink, I understand)!

    If we're talking about precedent then isn't there contemporary images of highlanders with belted plaid over trews?

    But trews we're a lot more like the aforementioned running tights then...
