CMcg,
Consider white hose, belts with dress waist plates worn with a Prince Charlie coatee and waistcoat, tartan flashes, ghillie/highlander shirts, and fly plaids.
These are all fairly recent developments (most starting in the 1970's and the rise of kilt rental shops), but far longer than the modern take on kilts like R Kilts, Utilikilts, and such or wearing hiking boots with scrunched down hose with a kilt. Even with a few decades behind them there are many that do not /will not consider these traditional.
I suspect that the truth is there can be many overlapping traditions and in the end it boils down to what the individual likes and the justifications/reasoning they find to support their choices.
Cheers
Jamie :ootd:
