Depends on how you are planning to wear the kilt but there is, at a minimum, a robust debate as to whether wearing a flat cap while kilted is traditional.

If one is wearing a bonnet while kilted, I think the balmoral is a fine choice (for most levels of dress but would simply avoid a bonnet for formal occasions). If one is looking for more sun protection, some of the options mentioned is this thread are going to be more effective than most.flat caps.
