Do you think these shoes would suit a kilt outfit?

Then save up and buy them. Seventy five cents a day (for a year) and they are yours...

Well... since you put it that way...

They look like my golf shoes to me. Hmm... now where did that originate???

Doc Martens are my favorite kilt shoes:

Guys, you get what you pay for. Every time you open your wallet. By all means, wear your Crocs and cheap Pakistani manskirts if you want. But don't whinge about the cost of quality products, okay?

So true. We talk about our forefathers' kilts and walking sticks long worn or leaned upon by others. They were dear even when they were purchased, but their quality is why they are still with us today. Save your pennies for the best and buy the best your pennies can buy; pass these cherished posessions on to the one(s) who will appreciate them most -- and can wear them/use them for another generation or two.

With Vibram soles to boot! Any footwear with that stuff on the bottom are sure to hold up to almost any hill walking you could throw at them.

Absolutely! These are a brilliant look for Traditional or Kilt Suit.

while searching the web, and thought they'd suit a tweedy, hillwalking sort of a kilt outfit. What do other people think?

I don't like them for myself.
