With time more diverse kilt wearing

[Jock Scot]

Without wishing to pee on anyone's ghillie brogues, I'd suggest that 'enforced' etiquette (outside of 'dress' occasions of course) is exactly why most people who have considered kilts don't wear them

Speaking from personal experience, the realisation that a kilt can be worn without ruffles and a PC jacket was a revelation for me and led directly to my recent first kilt purchase.

What a shame you have thought as you did.Wearing the kilt with a PC is not a common event for most of us,but the truth is that the kilt can be worn in a more informal style without looking sloppy.I amongst others feel that the kilt looks wrong when worn with a T shirt,no sporran,hose down at ankle,sandles etc.

For me,informal wearing of the kilt means,traditional wool kilt,hose drawn up to the correct height,well polished shoes,sporran,opened neck collared shirt,with or without pullover.People are quite at liberty to have other ideas but for me, I feel that any more casual than along the lines I suggest is doing kilt wearing no favours in the long run.
