What is the most versatile kilt jacket in your opinion?

[Steve Ashton]

The thing to remember is that if other guys at the event you are attending are not going to be in jacket and tie, just because you are wearing a kilt does not mean that you have to wear a jacket and tie. Let the event you are attending set the mode of dress and dress appropriately.

While I prefer to dress in a way that shows a bit of pride in my appearance I am not following any rules. I'm not in the military, I'm not trying to look like I stepped out of some 1920's or 1930's kilt catalog. And I am not bound by the conventions of a piper.

I do not, and will never, own a blue or green suit coat, sport coat or any other jacket that I wear with pants. So I would not wear them with a kilt.
To me, simple has always been the most elegant, while flashy or overboard just seem to come across as ego peacocking. I try to dress so that if I am at a counter and someone on the other side can't see my kilt they would just think I am wearing a normal jacket and tie.

I let the kilt be the one different and distinctive thing of my outfits. And for me, that is enough.

Perhaps the worse thing you can do is look like you are auditioning for the cover of some bodice ripper romance novel.
