Pub Wear
Is it a faux pas if I wore a glengarry cap with a clan badge with out wearing a kilt? Im pretty strapped for cash at the moment and Im trying to find something to wear at the pub and still "represent" as the homies say.
I cant buy the kilt I want right now (MacMillan Hunting Ancient) so what could I do to show my Scottish/ Clan pride? If anyone has a horrible problem with me not having a kilt, you can PM me and Ill give you the address for the Kilts for Poor Firefighters Fund!

Personally I think you could wear the glengarry with whatever you please. As far as kilts go, have you considered getting a SWK thrifty? For $28 it would allow you to represent...

I agree, if you don't have a kilt, wear what you have... I like the glengarry!

Go with what you have! For the time being, the kilt is for the pining.

I might look into the SWK Thrifty? I also am looking at a MacMillan USAK, but was wondering if it was the MacMillan Black Tartan that the Clan doesnt recognize????

from WV! I have seen people wear Glengarrys with jeans at Scottish festivals. Go for it!

I know this is a long way round - but bear with me. I was wearing my Isle of Skye kilt, a white shirt & tie, masters cape & gown, and a Glengarry while getting ready to march to our college's graduation when a lovely young lass with a Scots accent told me that a real Scotsman would never wear a Glengarry to a college graduation. I refrained from telling her "bollocks" mostly because of her charming accent. I just smiled and turned away.
My point? Some people won't be happy no matter how your dressed so I say wear your Glengarry with pride and do nothing to shame it or the heritage it represents.

Welcome,from a sunny Inverness-shire.Wear your glengarry by all means.The thing that may cause a rumpas is wearing clan badge "A" with tartan "B",but that is not a problem for you at the moment.

As I was dipping my toe into Scottish wear I used to wear my glengarry around town by itself. This also helped me get used to the 'looks' that folks would give for something unusual! By all means, go for it.

That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
