For a Scottish clansman, he or she would most obviously want to wear the tartan of their clan, it would be the same as a military badge. The tartan would make the wearer recognizable as being from Clan "A". But in the same token there may be those whom like the tartan from Clan "A", and chose to wear it as well. There is no harm in that, and certainly not illegal. I wear my clan tartan, and no other. Hope this helps.

Very well said Frank 
I have no problem with someone wearing a tartan "just because" they like it & have no connection in any way, shape, or form to it.
As for myself (and as I listed in the thread about our "tartans & why") I wear, or desire to wear, only those tartans that I have some connection to, rather it be family or other association (the only exception is Black Watch).
But that's me 
p.s. -- glad you survived your accident. I earned my broken wings back in October of '86.
