Outfit for Cobourg Highland Games
This was my choice of attire for the Cobourg Highland Games last weekend:
Custom, hand-knit hose in blue and ancient red
lovat green garter ties
black brogues,
Artificer custom sporran with targe, brass balls, MOD cantle, and a brass representation of Cape Breton Island.
8 yard, 13 oz MacDonald of Clanranald Ancient tartan kilt,
Brown leather belt with brass Sam Browne buckle
blue Tommy Hilfiger shirt,
blue silk pocket square
Canadian Forces Logistics Branch military tie,
light weight tweed with flecks of beige, rust, sky blue, dark brown and avocado green.
Brass tie bar,
Tan Balmoral bonnet
ram's horn cromach with thistle handle
In my view, traditional with personal flare.

A fine look. You also appear to have sprouted whiskers. It looks good on you.

He did add "personal flare" in his description. Truly a fine turnout.
