    Great research Shay, now to find "two usually leather flaps on a saddle covering the bars on which the stirrups are hung". I am not sure how I would wear it (or even what it is!), but it sounds like a lot of fun and I bet it would draw a lot more attention than a kilt!!

    An outstanding discussion on this topic. I thank everyone for their opinions and look forward to more. I expected this to be a very controversial thread and am happy to see that those on this site are above worrying about semantics and are more concerned with the wearing of the kilt.
