Exactly, that we wear a kilt is our own business.

And I still don't see what is wrong with wearing a traditional Inverness Cape with a kilt. The Inverness Cape certainly has more history and tradition binding it to the kilt than any bomber jacket or short coat from Burlington Coat Factory.

Do I like to show off my kilts? YES!

Do I care what others around me think of the kilt? NO!

Does it really matter to me if they see it or not? NOT AT ALL! All I care about is if I'm comfortable.

Now, with an Inverness Cape I usually leave it unbuttoned on the front to keep from overheating! But even if it's buttoned because of a blustery day, the sight of socks and no trouser legs is usually enough to get a question or two asked. And then it's the perfect moment to explain and/or reveal the kilt.
