Kilt pin traditions & standards?

[OC Richard]

Almost any good pin can be a kilt pin.

Yes it was very interesting to see, in a lengthy thread here called "show us your kilt pins" that the vast majority of the things being worn as kilt pins by XMarkers weren't designed or made as such.

Almost any good pin can be a kilt pin. Could be a standard nappy pin, a brooch or even an enamel badge. Creativity is a plus though- claymore pins do grate on you after being in the kilt community for so long!

Cool! In that case, I think I'll try to scratch up an Imjin Scout pin to wear with an army tartan kilt. It's a tiny bit of arcana that speaks to me.

I appreciate all the background from folks. I know it must feel like "reinventing the wheel," but as this'll be my first time on wheels, I'm trying not to land (too hard or publicly) on my nose.

Thanks!

Cheers,

Jack
