kilties

Scottish traditional dressers

Kilties are shoes or boots with a fringed leather flap (called a kiltie) that covers the lacing.

The decorative tongue, which resembles a small kilt, appears most often on golf shoes and casual loafers.

The term can also refer to the fringed flaps themselves: I added kilties to my saddle shoes.
