    I like the Black Watch tartan, the kilt looks great on you! The tan hose and shirt work very well with the colors.

    Hmmm, must be the camera.... The hose and shirt are a light grey.

That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    Aw! Don't worry about it Mike. Light grey works very well .............. but, light beige might be a tad better, bringing a touch of 'warmth' to the whole ensemble!

    Which is how I see them. Monitors can really play havoc with colors. It can often be difficult to make online tartan selections, never knowing how faithfully your monitor is reproducing them.

    You are right that many will not wear the Black Watch because of what the tartan represents, but the important part is that you enjoy wearing it. If you enjoy it, who else really matters?
