That's one of the main reasons I got it was to wear it to the Ren Faires with my kilt as many of the people that go there bring their own. This one guy in particular who won the "most authentic award at the kilt contest really impressed me with his outfit sword and all.

    Authentic Scot? A representation of a Scot from the past perhaps, certainly they are not judging a modern Scot,or even a vintage Scot! One wonders what the judges actually know to make that judgement. I have to admit that I am glad Ren Fairs have, thus far, avoided Scotland!

    I do have to wonder if some----not all---- Americans and perhaps others too, think Scotland is and has been for centuries some sort of theme park!

    I despair sometimes.
