I would hazard a guess that these same rugby fans would be wearing dress belts or dress sporrans, this does not mean that it is "proper" to wear dress sporrans, belts or ghillie brogues with a rugby shirt. What it means is that most people will think it acceptable as the only sporran or belt these chaps own are the dress ones. As for the Ghillies the reason, I think of the popularity of these has everything to do with the rental industry, so we are at the point where many see these as proper to wear with the kilt.
