Seersucker with a kilt
Inspired by Mael Coluim in this thread:
http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...-summer-74254/
I took an otherwise perfectly good seersucker jacket and converted it for kilt wear. I wore it today at the Chicago Highland Games.
I got many nice compliments!

Very smart, and very sensible in your climate that does still keep the essence of the overall traditional look. Well done laddie.

It looks like you turned back the clock eight or nine decades. I like it.

Good call. I think making accommodations for one's climate, while still keeping a traditional look, is very smart. Both literally and figuratively!

That's a good look, but with the weather this weekend, you could probably pull out the tweed ;-)

I would say that all round, that is a pretty good look.

Now if only you had a square ended thick woven tie, white sneakers, a not so stylish straw hat, and a tape recorder and camera around your neck you could be be.....A Kilted Kolchak! 
By the by, I do like the outfit but I can never see or hear about seersucker without thinking about the old Nightstalker ;)
