Just put it down to the myths that surround the wearing of the kilt
Quite right, Chris. I have heard of this myth surrounding the dicing on Highland bonnets and to me, it's simply rubbish, and not to be taken seriously. Wear whatever Highland headwear you prefer, be it a Glengarry or a Balmoral. My only suggestion is to go with Robert Mackie as your official bonnet maker.
