    Very generally speaking, a nice sporran with a cantle is probably fine for semi-formal wear, though I didn't follow th elink to that one.

    I always wear a belt with my kilts, but that' s just because I'm a slave of habit and I always wore a belt with pants, too. No belt makes me feel incomplete, so....

    But hell. As long as the thing stays on and you don't look like a shortbread tin after a bad LSD flashback, wear what you want!

    Oh, ansd welcome to the joint, too...

    Welcome to the board, Matt. I'm still fairly new, and I'm getting to know this great group of people.

    Personally, I like belts. I've never worn the kilt without one (except not with a vest, when it would be hidden), and I'd feel kind of incomplete without one. However, it's certainly up to you. Like the other guys say, as long as you look good overall and you're comfortable, wear what you like.
    Cheers,
    David

    Welcome aboard.

    I almost always wear a belt with a kilt. I don't have a waistcoat yet, but when I get it, I won't wear a belt with it because it won't show, and the vest will lay better without it.

    The main thing is to coordinate. Don't wear brown shoes with a black belt, or vice versa. You don't wear a brown belt for dress. Things like that.

    Look at the pictures of the gentlemen here for good examples.
