This reminds me of a cartoon I saw when I was on Skye. It showed a person (I guess an American) wearing a bandsman's outfit and doing a dance with a tour bus in the back and the caption "Ain't ya ever seen a highland fling before?"
Point is some people go overboard, much to my amusement when I went to the Scottish Walks in Alexandria.
While I might be tolerant about footwear, this is a place where kilt snobbery comes in. Mostly due to looking out of place. Or just plain outrageous.
Anyway, usually when I see someone wearing a kilt and plaid for day wear, they are wearing something from the 18th Century rather than a modern kilt.
Personally, save the plaid for a Montrose or Sherrifmuir doublet and those occasions when you are at Balmoral or Holyrood.
