The Checkered/Diced Tie

[Jock Scot]

I'd have to disagree with this statement Jock. I do not think contemporary necessarily equates sloppy. Here is an example of a contemporary style jacket, which in my opinion looks very sharp (minus the tartan tie) and would pass muster with any other more traditional styles. Steve offers and wears a similar style of contemporary jacket, and I'd argue that it is fine kilted attire.

I would say that outfit in the picture---minus the tartan tie----fits the traditional definition pretty well.
