Actually a nice pair of intact wingtips goes very well with a kilt.

The intact wingtips would be my first choice. In fact, that is what I wear with my kilt most of the time. For casual I will wear black low boots or tennis shoes. The idea of spending about $150 a pair of shoes that I would wear once or twice a year is not very appealing to me. My wingtips I can also wear to work with those dreaded items we don't like to admit we own. AND, they don't cost as much.
