Extending use of my military kilt beyond formal events

[Jock Scot]

You may find that a pullover/sweater worn with the kilt, will serve you well in any circumstance that is not formal. Should the climate be extreme then the pullover can be removed or added to as the situation requires.

The military-rise kilt will look fine with the same items you would wear with any other kilt. The rise won't make it look more or less formal. So feel free to wear it with your tweed Argyll, a sweater, or your more casual turtleneck, polo, or even "pirate" shirt.

No worries on the rise. As in the 1K10L thread, adapt it to your style and it is going to look grand.

Thanks for all the advice, and encouragement. I'm still getting used to kilt life.

I agree with Jock a pullover would be a perfect match.

To me there's nothing inherently formal about a traditional kilt.

As people above are saying it can be worn in any circumstance. You just change the accessories.

T-shirt, plain sporran, plain socks, trainers if it's warm.

Jumper if it's cool.

Looks nice, but I'm afraid the bright blue shoelaces on your trainers would not be considered traditional................
