Any One Tried These?

[Ryan Ross]

The cotton "underkilt" seems a pretty good idea, to me, but I think I'd rather just have some super long undershirts. If I had several of those, I'd likely go sans undies a lot more often.

I agree. If I'm going out regimental, I'd prefer a long undershirt. It accomplishes the same "lining" goal without adding an extra garment to my closet (or attached around my waist).

If I'm not mistaken from reading past postings by Matt and others, isn't the long tailed shirt very historically correct for kilt wear. Seems to accomplish the same task of keeping the kilt clean for regemental wearers. Not too sure I'd be comfortable wearing the "liner", but that's just my opinion.

I, too, just buy extra-tall shirts with long tails at the store and wear those with my kilt. I also buy a collar size larger if I'm going to be piping.

O.K. Here is the low down.

The liner arrived today. The material, fit, and finish are first rate. I asked for an exact measurement, both in length and lower circumference, and that is what I got. Despite much trying to generate some static I just couldn't get a spark either with wool or acrylic. Nor was there a hint of cling. The wide (3/4") elastic is comfortable and fully covered. All seams are serged as well as sewn, and the bottom hem is double stitched. The lag between my custom order and delivery was a little over one week. All in all I am satisfied that I got more than my money's worth.

The summer hiking season is upon us here in the Southern Appalachians, and a smooth cling-free liner is going to make the woolies even more comfortable.

I know some of you are skeptical. At least on the outside. But, as with kilts themselves, you'll never know what you are missing if you don't try.

About the collar, I learned the hard way (per ardua) to increase the size of my tuxedo shirt (and other shirts that require a tie) by about an inch to accommodate my piping.

Yes, that's what I said above along with some others. Is there a known source for the long T-shirt? I could go for some of these for the sake of variety.

Worn some... never washed?

Thanks, Ruanaidh. Unfortunately, they do not come in my size, but I'll find another vendor. Thanks, again.
