    If and when anything has to be worn under the kilt, it's best kept brief. Any garment with legs (such as boxers, cycling/athletic shorts, etc.) looks so wrong when glimpsed beneath the kilt.

    When giving public dance displays, sometimes on raised platforms, back in the 60s, 70s and early 80s, I wore Speedo-style briefs, often in black but sometimes in a colour to match the base colour of the tartan I was wearing. I once found a pair in a perfect skin tone which were much envied by fellow male dancers - they were also the most comfortable that I'd ever worn (if that's possible of briefs) and I was sorry that I could never find another pair to replace them!

    I recently got several pairs of microfiber woven briefs on clearance at Target for $1.69 each. They were woven in one piece so there are absolutely no seamlines or hems for irritation and the tag is printed (again to eliminate irritation). They are very well designed for the male anatomy and quite frankly it feels like I'm not wearing anything down there. Product of Isreal, where I guess being comfortable in the middle eastern heat is a good thing.

    Too bad they only had a few pair on the clearance rack and none in the main section.

    For a number of reasons I wear briefs all the time under my kilts, usually black or dark colours. I tried wearing boxers...once. I don't know who thought up that design, but boxers to me are like some kind of horrible torture device. May as well wear pants! ~shudder~

    Or competing in the highland games. We were told it was for the children's safety ;)

    P.S. I love the UnderArmor briefs.

    Hmmm, I say don't give the trouser tyrants any ammunition. On a totally unrelated note, my wearing the kilt to a friends wedding has led to a wave of positive support from mutual friends of the couple and our peers at school. There is some joking about wearing "a skirt" but it is all in good fun. I soon plan to wear kilts on a regular occasion.

    What's between a man and his kilt is between a man and his kilt. So it shouldn't matter either way. Besides, God sees all regardless of the number of layers.

    You must be careful of what type of church you're going into with a Kilt in the first place. There are churches that won't allow a Kilt regimental or no and that God cannot get into either. :-(
