This is an interesting picture. That looks like a single colour kilt. I've heard of Canadians having khaki kilts but not in the British Army.
He's also wearing long puttees, I've only ever seen kilted soldiers in short puttees.
Many militia regiments adopted grey well before the regular army abandoned red. The London Scottish are perhaps the most famous exponents but the whole of the South London Brigade was known as the Grey Brigade because of their grey uniforms https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/140th_...ondon)_Brigade They were not the only ones.
