Explanation: Romans wore tunics, which generally did not reach the knees. Flexible and breathable! This includes the Roman Legions. Trousers were denigrated as ‘barbarian’, though Legions in northern areas and the later Empire would begin to wear them regularly.
Julius Caesar’s right-hand man, Mark Antony, was noted as wearing scandalously short tunics to show off his muscular legs. Ooh la la!
A skirt with pockets is something you earn in battle
Romans would often store small items just by dropping them inside their tunic - the belt keeps the item from falling out.

Meanwhile, the Celts: “HERE COMES DANGLING WAAAAAAAANG!!!!”
I came into this world naked, and I’m leaving it naked!
If you can’t afford armor, might as well strip down so your clothes don’t get damaged or soaked in blood.
Clothing on the battle field is going to be filthy. A fighter is more likely to get an infected wound if cloth gets pushed into the wound.
What a strategy though!
Imagine you’re ready to fight and these insane bastards just run at you naked.

Further explanations: Who are we to tell Romans on the battlefield that they can’t look cute.
Well, it must have become impractical after they started to invade cold countries… But it didn’t seem to have stopped them.
Also, I can’t tell them anything.
I mean, it gets pretty cold in Scotland and kilts are a thing there.
Outrageous. And tell, could this Marcantonio crush watermelons with his thighs?
Mark Antony was considered something of an crude boor, yet he managed to snag the incredibly intelligent, cultured, powerful, and beautiful Queen Cleopatra in what was an apparently happy marriage.
So I must assume yes, his thighs were incredible
Considered crude. So.. like it seems Cleopatra likes playas. Figures.
Now that’s how you catch the eye of a pharaoh
Hey, we Scots were progressive that way too! Did some of our best mangling and hacking in a skirt.
Romans put up a wall so we didn’t horn in on their fashion scene.
The longer the dick, the longer the skirt.
