I really like contemporary kilts and I think this kilt/boot combo are awesome. Panache is correct, the shirt is a bit conservative compared to the rest of the outfit.....but maybe that was the point? A more edgy shirt might have pushed the outfit a bit farther out into left field, and made the outfit only appropriate for certain situations. As it is now, the outfit is conservative enough to wear around any public place, and the boots give the outfit just enough "attitude." I dig it.
