I've been pondering this for the past few weeks and thought someone here may be able to enlighten me.

I wore my SWK Irish Saffron heavyweight kilt to the High River Highland Games 3 weeks ago and was quite well received. I wore a black shirt & hose with it.

However, one of the vendors made a comment that he didn't explain. He said "Nice kilt, but a true Irishman would kick your **** for wearing it with black".

I've never heard anyone comment like that before and he didn't elaborate. Anyone here know what he meant?
