    To give a direct answer to your question. From my knowledge and experience - no.

    But I consider the kilt as a modern garment and as such any shoulder bag that you would consider using with a pair of jeans would work with a casual kilt; any shoulder bag that you would consider using with a sport-coat or suit would work with a dressy kilt.

    I don't think that any shoulder bag should be used with a formal kilt. I would then load all the stuff in an appropriate colored stroller

    LOL
    I don't think he'll be running errands and spending time at the park with the wee one in a Montrose Doublet, or even PC for that matter!

    I have one of these by Barbour and no one has ever said anything about it being girly!

    I use this Warrior bag when the kilt is a wee to small for the extra gear. After all if it's good enough for Jack Bauer it's good enough for me!

    Fo carrying around my school stuff, I use a big bag my dad got at some computer trade show. It's big, black, and masculine looking, and has lots of pockets and things inside to hold pencils, calculator, textbooks, etc.

    You also could probably get a messenger bag with a suitably masculine logo or phrase from Cafépress.com

    If you've never owned one, treat yourself to an OGIO bag. I've had many others but OGIO is top shelf.

    If you want what us country traditional Brits. use, "Google" William Powell.I am sorry I am not cleaver enough to get the email address here.Anyway,William Powell are gun makers and sell all the gear--click onto "accessories shop" and up will come pictures of game bags, look at the ones with netting on the front(called the Sandringham? and there is a bigger version too).I have used one for years and they are almost indistructable.Most of the gamekeepers around here(UK too)would have the large version.Hope this helps.

    You know what would look kinda cool? Something like a Thorfinn or Freelander sporran, but bigger and with a strap that you could sling over your shoulder...

    YES...........forget the full Mask Badger Sporran..........a full Badger Bag!!

    That would be kinda cool, unless someone thought you were being attacked by a wild animal and tried to knock it off of you!!

    I love it! You could make the straps out of the legs!
