Okay then. Now I know how to make clothes out of just a big long blanket/cloth and a belt. This is one most useful things I have ever learned. I love how you wen't from scott in a kilt to jedi/mage in like 3 seconds.

[@stoutyyyy]

Chaylar actually if you look at most ancient clothing, for anyone who wasn’t a royal it was cheaper and more functional to make clothes out of big sheets of fabric. Medieval cloaks, Greek chitons, Roman togas, Latin-American serapes and of course the kilt are all just giant cloth rectangles that are just belted and pinned in different ways

[@JakeMcGrawType10]

I just never realized that most of it was just folding technique until now. I thought there was more to it. @@stoutyyyy

[@tabithamartin4092]

Yep yep, I am totally gonna be doing this for my Jedi outfit now. :)

[@evelyngorfram9306]

@@stoutyyyy Another factor is that cloth was *expensive* back in the day. High quality wool tartan suitable for kilts and plaids seems to go for about 100 pounds sterling (plus or minus 50 depending on quality & whatnot) per yard right now, and it was much more costly when it was all shorn, cleaned, carded, spun, woven, dyed, and fulled by hand. Garments were bought, sold, traded, given, and even made bequests in wills. It's a lot easier to fold & drape a kilt or chiton than to alter a fitted garment to fit a grandchild (or whoever) who is taller/shorter/thinner/etc than the garment's last owner.

[@ragnkja]

Stephen M. Stouter Even after clothes started to be made of more pieces of fabric, basic garments (i.e. all that weren’t made to be a show of conspicuous consumption) were made of rectangles and right triangles, because curved cuts tended to be more wasteful.

[@turtlewolfpack6061]

Properly lanolized wool wont really adopt odors and sheds water pretty well. As a matter of fact, lanolin is one of the reasons wool is so amazing when it comes to clothing.

[@fionnagrant6636]

Lanolin would be most effective as a water repellent with wool "spun in the grease" and not subsequently dyed, so not best with a patterned fabric like tartan. However fulling the fabric also felted and shrank the fibres adding to the water resistance.

[@turtlewolfpack6061]

@@fionnagrant6636 lanolin is still effective on all wool even though you are correct.

[@fionnagrant6636]

Thanks TurtleWolf Pack. Sorry if a came across a bit blunt and know-it-all y. I sometimes have trouble with tone in short written messages. My mum used to spin a lot and she preferred spinning in the grease and using natural wool colours because she found it spun better and she liked the protection from the elements. It does smell a bit sheepy though. I find the whole waulking / fulling process quite fascinating like magic, but I've never seen it in person.

[@fionnagrant6636]

I wonder, were knitted clothes much of a thing in Scotland early on?

[@turtlewolfpack6061]

@@fionnagrant6636 I doubt knitting would have been used in Scotland until it was imported, I know the ancient Norse used a method of knotting to make socks and such that has been almost lost to the ages. Many older cultures used similar methods as well.

[@BlacksmithTim]

Good video. I'd add from my experience -- I won't argue that it's "historical" or "authentic" -- I like a longer shirt under it. I usually wear a linen shirt that when loose hangs almost to my calves, and when my plaid is belted ends up bloused a bit at the waist and an inch or so short of my plaid hem. Above the belt the shirt is a bit sloppy-loose, which is fine as I'm usually using my arms a lot smithing or in field craft. If you're active, a shorter shirt tends to ride up as you use your arms and slowly works its way up and out of the belt and plaid. Longer and looser it just moves with you and stays put from the belt down. My linen shirts also seem to cling some to the wool from the belt down and that seems to keep things more in place all around. I've also found that sporran and, sometimes, dirk when worn front-center handily push the plaid between my thighs when squatting or sitting, minimizing the ... exposure. Both to the easily offended and to the mosquitos that are common in my corner of the world. Finally, I tend to wear cut hose that are cut to reach up my thighs with a couple of cords, thongs or what have you (garters). When the weather is harsh and chill, the hose go up, the hem gets tugged down a bit, adjust garters to suit.

[@edi9892]

Fascinating. I'm really interested in why clothing developped in a certain way, or how form follows function. While, I'm not really into wearing kilts, I'm kinda sad, seeing how restricted we're in the west today, compared to all the cuts, colours and patterns we used to wear in days long ago. I really hate modern rain"coats" that don't even keep my butt dry, have hoods that obstruct my vision and hearing and get blown down by the wind all the F-ing time. Wearing a full 1920s attire showed me how much better outdated attire could be in terms of functionality. I'm sure that this applies to many other things too. Modern trousers are often too tight and restrictive, modern shoes with their raised heels are actually bad for us and modern shirts are nowhere near as comfortable in summer as the renaissance-shirts. There's probably so much more that we forgot. We really should be less arrogant about our ancestors.

[@bensigl3766]

I had the same experience when I was doing snow removal (shoveling) and I made most of my snow suit out of 1950s military gear. The wool army pants with liners were some of the warmest pants I've ever owned. And the jacket was an M-56 fishtail parka with 2 liners in it. Also never worn anything warmer!

[@FurnitureFan]

I've never found a hood that's any use in rain or snow. I like them, but in wet weather I always wear a hat like a baseball cap or riding hat - with that kind of brim in front, IDK the technical term - to keep the driving rain out of my eyes.

[@FurnitureFan]

Having agreed with some of your points, I think our ancestors would deeply envy central heating, air conditioning and the ability to own a dry change of clothing.

[@ScotchIrishHoundsman]

@@FurnitureFan I'd bet many of them would see this modern age and, after the initial excitement, would long for the freedom of their own time. And of course this would all depend on their time period, political climate, financial status, etc. I don't think that we have it right, nowadays we are such consumers and we waste so much. Not only that but everywhere you go now, there are houses and people. We don't have true wilderness or freedom to go pick a plot of land and scratch out a living from the dirt. But I do thoroughly enjoy central heat and air.

[@LeraSvThatKemetovskaya]

Agree! modern clothes can be very uncomfortable as well as ugly! And the fabrics are not natural. And shoes in 2021-2022 generally suck! Soles like hooves! Also horror stuff! Impossible to walk! And the pants are really so narrow and uncomfortable that it is unbearable to sit down in them, or at least just sit down!

[@fionnagrant6636]

I don't know where I got this from, but I was under the impression that before underwear was a thing (in most of Europe, not just Scotland), that shirt tails were a lot longer and worn as an under layer like underpants. So with trousers linen shirt tails protected your sensitive areas from scratchy fabric. I vaguely remember something about tying them together like a onesie when a working in marsh or some such required you to remove your pants. I'm sorry I watch a lot of historical documentaries and read a lot and have no clue where I got those ideas.

[@lizzyscorner]

It makes sense. Think about it, if we can come up with it now, ‘they’ would have come up with it to.

Keeping a layer of anything between you and your clothes or bedding keeps everything cleaner longer. Including bits and pieces. Their shirts were long for exactly the reason you give.

[@ulfheinn8363]

​@@22grena Scotti does not mean Irishman. It is the latin name for the Gaels of Northern Britain and Ireland before it soon came to exclusively describe only the Gaels of Scotland. Bagpipes have been an instrument in Scotland since before the 15th century, making them older than the Great Irish Warpipe. Tartan origin is not from Scotland but it is very much associated with Scottish culture and has nothing to do with Ireland. The claim of the stone of Scone being from Tara and the Highland Kilt "probably" being based on the Leine are baseless and an Englishman inventing the "modern" kilt is also irrelevant. Please stop trying to paddy wash Scotland's history with this bullshit.

[@galoglaich3281]

Ascended Fashy . I am late to the party.Irish and english would have very different clothing until the 17th century when england reconquered ireland and imposed its culture on ireland.That didn't happen until much later in the highlands of scotland which is why the highland costume survived better than irish traditional costume.The irish never wore kilts ,but did wear leine croich which was a knee length tunic that looked like a kilt and they also wore a brat which is a cloak,which in scotland became a kilt.

Hello from the hills of Kentucky. I believe that you're onto something with the use of drawstring or belt loops. Think of curtains on a window. If a line is followed, once the kilt has been worn, there's your guide. Doing so much folding is not necessary. Simply gather the cloth, cinching it with hand, place your belt under the gathering, at the area of the line. An approximation works. Now, with belt being something of a clothesline, but it to your back. All of your curtain is gathered at your back. Simply draw the curtain from the sides, lapping over the front. There you have it. The excess hangs, gathered over your butt. From this point, the draping of the angavastram can be done to your desire.
