Kid Cossack, I tend to wear Crocs when going casual, I also have a brown pair which would have been less eye popping. I think I'll have to acquire a pair in black for a slightly more traditional look.

Ozman1944,
Thanks for the kilt wearing tip. I need to wear my a bit longer due to religious reasons, but I think I can get closer than what is shown in the picture.

I appreciate the kind words and the advice, what a great on line community.

Cheers,
