Casual shoes with a kilt?

[JerseyLawyer]

I wear brown hiking boots with my other brown leathers (sporran and belts) and I also have a pair of black Harley-Davidson riding boots for the other black leathers.

And here I am, buying a brown belt and sporran to go with my brown ghillie brogues. I'm backwards.

A lawyer wearing brown shoes - I dunno. You're in contempt.

A common misconception with kilts is that you have to wear this or have to wear that in this way. Well, the kilt is about comfort and freedom - so you are free to wear what is comfortable for you!

My personal taste is to wear boots, whether they be hiking, combat, motorcycle, or otherwise. I think this is because of the fact that they go up the ankle a bit, which works well with socks. If not wearing socks, I think sandals will work just fine, especially athletic sandals.

I couldn't say it any better! The above is true!

I haven't worn them yet, but I got a pair of Croc-style shoes to wear for the summer. They've been touted as comfortable and cool, so I'm looking forward to trying therm.

Has anybody worn these with their kilt?

I will wear them around the house, or out to the store to pick something up, but I don't wear them "around town." They're comfortable, but fugly.

I wear hiking shoes with my AKs and I don't tuck the t-shirt in either when I'm just kicking around.

Leather Asolo hiking boots are my main choice for casual wear. Like one of the earlier posters alluded to, to me a tennis shoe just does not balance out the sturdiness of the kilt. But, just my 2 cents worth.

When I do a funeral I wear black suede slipons and a black turtle neck that way I am all black with Blackwatch

OK. Brogues are far too expensive for me at this time. Usually, I wear a pair of black gym shoes with my kilt with regular black socks.

Get a decent pair of second-hand black wingtips from the thrift store, and some cheap hose from SportKilts. My shoes generally cost $6.00-$8.00. Regular dress socks look goofy with a kilt. While you're at the thrift store, get a decent Oxford shirt in a complementary color, and you're good to go.

I wanted to know what casual-type shoes look best with and/or without kilt hose.

My favorite kilt casuals are a second-hand pair of leather Timberlines. Without kilt hose, my favorites are Guinness flip-flops (in this "robust" economy, the only type of shoe I can afford to buy new any more, and that's from EBay).
