Brogues, boots, what is casual? What is dressy?

[Taskr]

AHAAA! It took a while to get there, but I thought that might be the problem. Its not a new one and I can recognise the symptoms pretty well now!

It may help you to understand kilt attire better if you understand two basic things. Firstly you need to divorce American terminology from British and secondly you need to understand that there are no exact comparisons between dress definitions of kilt attire and saxon wear. A tad confusing for a start, but as many here have found out to their benefit, it does help one no end to understand the finer points of kilt attire.

Exactly!!! The 10 looks threads and a few others have been excellent guides. Yet the topic of shoes is not necessarily well covered in pictures, as the OP notes. For myself, I have basically decided that if it looks like it belongs under a suit and I can give them a good shine, then the shoes fit under the kilt for business and formal dress. These include an oxblood brogue and black toe-cap. I've seen patent leather on others for formal in the kilt. Looks sharp, just not for me. I wear the black toe-cap with my tux, too; parade gloss polished.
