    I never wear a tartan tie with the kilt. However, I often wear a tartan tie (Macmillan dress) with a three piece tweed suit.

    I think they can look pretty good with a kilt on occasion and certainly look well with a suit.
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    I never wear one with a kilt, however when I'm in a suit they are great.
    However...many are made too short and too narrow.

    I can't imagine ever wearing one with a kilt, but think they look nice with a tweed suit or sportcoat.

    Cordially,

    My MacPherson tie was my first bit of tartan and I proudly wear it whenever I have to wear a suit.

    I like tartan ties.

    However if I wear one with a kilt then I wear a waistcoat to break up having the two right next to each other.

    Cheers

    I quite often wear a matched tie with kilt, black hose and shirt with dark grey argylle jacket. The little flash of colour in the above belt expanse of dark looks rather dashing IMHO.
