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 are doing kilt wearing no favours in the long run.

You mean it's a shame that I thought formal was the only way to wear a kilt? If that's the case then you're absolutely right. I should point out, though, that I'm not advocating dressing as you suggested for a moment, and as I said earlier, casual to me is kilt, sporran and shirt. Admittedly I wear my black hose down with boots but still think that looks casual and smart without being formal. That's the kind of casual that I think should be encouraged
