In nearly all cases the references to 'khaki' kilts are to the Hodden Grey kilts worn by The London Scottish and The Toronto Scottish. The colour, in person, is quite distinct from khaki.

Search the forums here, there have been a number of discussions, here is a fairly recent one
http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...s-kilts-75444/
One of the most interesting things to come out of that thread was the very clear photo of a WWI kilt issued to the Black Watch of Canada, mostly khaki but with a large check pattern, what we Americans would call a 'windowpane check'

and very small photos of a form of kilt in khaki, selfcoloured.
