Duluth Trading Company sells long t-shirts to hide "plumbers crack"
Be careful though. Both times I've done business with them the item was not as ordered. First time the % of hemp advertised in their hemp shirts was way less than on their website and in their catalog. Second time, the sporran-like thing I ordered was much smaller in all dimensions than they stated on their website and catalog.
Never actually purchased their t-shirts, but they're supposed to be long. They also imply that their other shirts are cut long too...they're not.
Check them out, make your own decision.

I've got four of these kilt liners from Anna Manning Porter all in different colours. The four gore construction gives the perfect shape for under a kilt, and helps the kilt hang correctly. Wearing one of these is a useful option for keeping a good quality wool kilt clean and will more than pay for itself in savings on dry cleaning bills, though I only regard these as an essential item when wearing some modern style kilts with a narrow overlapping front apron, or lightweight polycotton or acrylic kilts, especially the bottom of the range ones which have no fell. I am sure other people would much prefer to see a nylon lining than my private bits if the wind lifts the kilt. There are some kilts I just would not feel right about wearing a lining under, for example heavier kilts such as the Utilikilt or the Freedom cargo kilts.

I ordered 2 from Ms. Porter to try. If they suit, I'll order more.

I've cut the seam out of a few pair of boxers myself but why do you use pinking shears?

They tend to minimize fraying in the wash due to the ragged edges of the cut.

The day I consider wearing one of those with my kilts is the day I pack them up and sell them. If I needed or wanted anything under the kilt I will wear boxerbriefs.

Black boxer briefs do just fine for me when I need something under there either to protect the kilt or protect my modesty, depending on what activities i'm doing. if i'm doing a lot of hiking or walking or something where chafing could be an issue, black lycra biking shorts are good, and what most highland game competitors wear too.

I'm a fan of that joke, too. But apparently the Fisher Space Pen was developed without the expenditure of any public money.
And who knows when you'll need to write upside down on greased glass in the middle of a rain storm!
Sorry for veering off topic. Briefs or compression shorts, depending on the context, work just fine, and I don't see any need for a slip, err, liner.

And, their space toilets work, but I'd still rather fly in a U.S. space craft. How 'bout you?
