Critique my summer kilt wear

[Jock Scot]

And a Saturday at that, so I traded a polo for a T and switched our my footwear to Chancos and removed my kilt belt. Is this still the right sub-forum for this pic?

I have to say, no that is not a traditional kilt look, it is in the wrong sub-forum and I will say why.

The overall impression is just too far from the traditional look, sensible maybe, traditional it is not.

In detail. T shirts are not traditional in any way, with the kilt, and T shirts with logos on, well, just push the overall impression way beyond traditional. I personally would have had no problem with say a long sleeved tattersall shirt with the sleeves rolled up and open collar.

I am sorry, whilst I can understand not wearing a belt in hot climes, when combined with the overall impression it is just too casual. I suppose it is my upbringing coming to the fore here, where a belt is required when not wearing a waist coat.

The non traditional sporran now catches my eye and added to the overall impression just helps it move away from the traditional look. You are at least wearing a sporran though!

I find the lack of hose, of the required length too, whilst no doubt is very sensible in the circumstances is not helpful to the overall look. I can quite see that removing ones shoes and hose(still wearing the kilt!)for a gentle paddle with the children is quite acceptable, but about town so to speak, well, no.

Sandals? Well again, sensible no doubt, but hardly traditional.

Well you did ask!
