Hey there

Welcome to the wonderful world of the belted plaid!
I noticed that nobody answered your question regarding proper footwear to wear with your BP



I made these after a pattern used by my reenactment group. I'm not totally convinced of their historical accuracy, but I think they look good and will suit my purposes for now.
I did a very non-PC thing by gluing on Birkenstock soles on the bottom.
Historical Jacobites didn't walk on concrete or broken glass.

My next pair will likely look like this here



If you feel like making your own, feel free to PM me and I'll assist however I can.

Hope this helps

Iain
