I know we've had the "Whatever you wear, wear it respectfully" discussion but because this is the actual uniform of that regiment I feel I need to be a bit more careful.

Also I noticed a sporran at North of Saint Andrews with a Gordon Highlanders emblem on the flap that poses the same dilema.

Would adding these Gordon Highlander accessories be too much?
As a veteran of The 1st Bt.THE GORDON HIGHLANDERS,I would just like to say that I am always delighted to see non regimental wearers of our tarten.Please however,wear it with great respect,Winston Churchill called our regiment the finest that ever was,and I believe him.Affiliate regiments are:The London Scottish Regiment {also affiliated to The Toronto Scottish regiment:-sharing the hodden grey kilt}and The Cape Town Scottish.
