    Scottish kilts have been around since the 1500’s.

    The zipper was patented in the 1800’s.

        If the ease of peeing determines the usefulness of a garment, then in a world without zippers, kilts are clearly the superior genitalia obscuring clothing item. For 200 years the Scots were enjoying free and easy urination while the rest of the British Isles were having to unlace their codpieces like fools.
