I have scoured the internet and this forum to the best of my ability and I cannot find an all-black balmoral. Are they considered "incorrect"? It seems like they would look really good, so I'm surprised not to be able to find any.

Does anybody know somewhere I haven't looked, or have any reasons for why I shouldn't get one? I personally don't like the look of the red pom on the black hat.

Also, I am just curious — will a balmoral protect you from the cold? If no, are there any hats that do that also work with a kilt. I have a Russian fur hat (you know, with the flaps) which may well be the warmest hat in existence, but with a kilt?

Thanks in advance!
Matt!
