I’m not trying to be the kilt police. It’s just that sometimes someone, usually not from Britain will post a picture in the traditional kilt wearers forum only to be told what he is wearing isn’t THCD. Newcomers might get the impression that something marked not traditional is somehow “wrong.” My point is there is a difference between something not traditionally worn in the highlands by civilians and someone wearing a punk/goth look in a modern utility kilt. Not that there is anything wrong with either. Maybe something like wearing a flat cap with a kilt. Not THCD, but I like the look. Also where I live seersucker is very traditional in summer. Could a seersucker kilt jacket ever be considered traditional by highland standards? It just seems that the THCD style is mainly British inspired. I tend towards that style myself but as I’m not British I also don’t feel the need to limit myself to what is worn across the pond. This isn’t meant to be a criticism of anyone. It was just an idea I had.
