Kilt Do's and Don'ts

[Hachiman]

DO use kilts in ad campaigns so more people get used to seeing them:

whilst I personally like the image, and agree with the sentiment in the original post, this picture actually reminds me of a previously stated "don't"....That is, "don't mix your tartans". These rather manly-looking men (I use the term loosely) are wearing checked shirts with their kilts (we Aussies refer to these shirts as "flanellette" or "flanno's") - and isn't that considered a fashion faux pas?

Or am I just advertising my ignorance? ;)

I do like the picture as well, and I give props to Hilfiger for trying to target to a specific crowd. Unfortuantely Hilfiger is known for their shirts that look like these flannel shirts. I think if you just took away the flannel shirts and even gave them plain black or white shirts no logo or anything the picture would look a thousand times better, but then the picture would be advertising nothing. I agree that is in bad taste to combine these two, but oh well, at least they tried.
