    At risk of offending the tartan police.
    1) get a good pair of Socer socks. I wore them with my kilt for a few years before i got a proper set of kilt hose and never got a sideways glance.
    2) Make your flashes fron ribbon and elastic found at a fabric store.
    3) a nice pair of shiny dress shoes will suffice for gilies.
    4) if well pressed, your sport kilt may look just fine to the general population.
    5) I found some beautiful kilt style heavy wide belts at the tool belt section at sears or home depot. Shine them up good.

    Good luck

    Also try the local military surplus and/or police uniform stores.

    "Duty belts" work as kilt belts.
