It's all good and well if you want to match your sporran, belt and shoes, colours in your tie, tartan and hose, shirt and nosegay, but that isn't how it is traditionally done, as you noted, and what you do therefore is strictly personal choice. How we wear what is traditional, is how we express our personality in the Highlands.
    In that case, I’d rather see tan wingtips and a brown sporran.
