    I like it. You look comfortable, and that's most important.

    The sporran is too dressy, otherwise you look good.

    I was comfortable. I had only worn it with a button-up dress shirt before. I will end up with a simpler sporran at some point, but I'll have to sell a few junk motorcycle parts before I can do that...
    Thanks for the input. I'm usually a pretty low-key (sloppy?) type of dresser, but I try to look presentable when I wear the kilt. It stands out enough already. No need to make it look bad at the same time.

    I like the way you think, I am sure that attitude will do you well with kilt wearing.

    Check out Stillwater for a low cost day sporran (you probably won't even have to sell anything...I think they have them for under $20!). AND, I love your location - Minne-snow-ta!! A friend of mine lives there; we just received a letter telling us how cold it has been in Sleepy Eye!

    I like that look. I wear a belt similar to that with my casual clothes, but I do prefer not to use a dressier sporran. Not so much because it's dressy but because it doesn't hold enough junk! I had to get a nice roomy day sporran that I could stuff full of everything I like to carry around.

    I think it balances out. I'd say you successfully bent the rules until they all straightened out. No long sleeve white t-shirt is offset by the the cantle on the sporran. Belt bridges cantle and shirt. Formal and informal balanced.

    Your attitude covers everything.

    Nice look, but heed the wisdom of the other Kilted brothers.
