    Walking outfit

    My lovely Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess converted a sturdy dark brown twill blazer for me into a kilt jacket suitable for going out walking as seen in this thread.

    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/j...001/index.html

    Today I thought I would put together a good outfit for going for a long stroll.





    My main thought was to come up with somehing good looking but comfortable on a long walk (hence the soft cotton shirt, Sperry Top-Sider shoes, and the traditional garter ties from the STM). I like how the two tone shoes match my Freelander sporran.

    What do you think?

    Cheers

    Jamie

    Apart from THE hat you look pretty smart. My father used to have a watch chain of the style of yours.He used to run it through the waist coat button hole directly between the pockets to make things less easy for pickpockets.

    Very nice Jamie - I love the "ticket pocket" its very hacking jacketey if that's even a word...

    Up here in Idaho, proper walking around attire includes wool scarves, wool hats, mittens, and your sturdiest wool hose. Today's hight temperature was 6 degrees (f) - sigh.

    So, I'm guessing that Panache is wearing a waistcoat, or is the watch in the jacket pocket?

    I'm adding up that the shoes are the black and brown shoes. That's very interesting. Is this with the Half Lamont , Stillwater kilt, as well?
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
