    Tony,

    As a KofC 4th Degree, I have trod this path before as well and got a very similar response from HQ. I've never contacted my Irish or Scottish brothers, and I didn't know about IACK (great idea BTW!) Because of the heat in Texas, we have a summer uniform that HQ beats us down for everytime they hear we've worn it, but what can I say, we're Texans and sometimes we're a stubborn lot. Anyway, the summer uniform includes a white Navy mess jacket instead of tuxedo coat and cape. I've worn that mess jacket with my kilt to functions in the past (not in an official capacity) and got good reviews from fellow Knights. I put it up here a long time ago for critiques and got really good advice for changes/tweaks. I've made those changes, but have don't have a photo. Here is what I posted a long time ago on this site.



    I really like idea of contacting IACK and getting 1 tartan representative of all the various Catholic Knights associations.

    Hi Dean

    Super picture! Thanks for sharing. I plan to wear a MacBeth tartan kilt to our council Christmas Dinner. I can't wait.

    I'll email the IACK about a tartan this week

    I'll be attending Mass this weekend in my kilt. I'm looking forward to that

    Gotta run --- there's kilting to be done

    Tony
