Kilt jacket with Club-Crest?

[TSRalex]

Clan crests are very commonly worn on the brest pocket of both kilt jackets and blazers, worn with the Clan kilt pin, worn with the Clan badge on the SD, worn with the Clan lapel badge, worn with the Clan badge tie, worn with the Clan bonnet badge, with the Clan badge on the sporran, withthe Clan badge cuff links, with the Clan badge tie pin and yes, with the Clan tartan kilt!

Sounds like "full branded".

I think we get the message that visitors are in town and who they are batting for.

Surely. It´s important for many Club-Members to show their identity and membership.

I also do see the occasional bowles/curling club type badge on a visiting blazer breast pocket with the kilt too.

OK, on Blazer, but you´ve never seen it on "typical" Kilt-Jackets?

In your opinion - would it be blaspheme to wear it there?

I tried to add an afterthought by iPhone to my post above, but it must have arrived too late for you to see. No matter.

I do see quite a few Clan badges, but not so many Club badges on kilt jackets -----even tweed kilt jackets-----of visitors and it does look strange to my eyes. Rather unnecessary in fact. The traditional British/Scottish way is to proudly wear a club tie. There are quite a few threads here about the effectiveness of club/university/college/Regimental ties with kilt attire. In passing, we in the UK take a very dim view of people wearing ties that they are not entitled too.

Jock,
Clan badges, yes. But I have never seen an embroidered "club/society badge" on a kilt jacket breast pocket.

I have seen a very few and wish that I hadn't. I can recall a visiting curling club in particular, wearing them. They were very nice chaps from Sweden I think, but "someone" must have decided that everyone must wear exactly the same badged outfit on every occasion.

And these Swedes were kilted, Jock?

Indeed they were, Black Watch tartan as I recall. To be fair they made a fairly good show of wearing their kilts and attire..........apart from those breast pocket badges........and I would not be surprised if some good advice and perhaps a bit of practice on kilt wearing had been obtained before they ventured forth.

Some, not all members of the Black Watch Veterans Association wear the Regimental Crest as an embroidered badge on their jackets. But most seem to wear, well not trews, but rather tartan trousers with a long "English" blazer.
