    X Marks can make the decision

    I have a favourite hat for out walking in the hills/countryside/pubbing etc when the sun is blazing down. I really cant make my mind up if this hat goes well with kilts/cilts. I'm 50/50 .. so here's a pic and I will leave it to the x marks community to decide whether it goes or stays .... by the way its the only hat I got .. I am not a big hat wearer.

    I'm not sure what kind of hat and which kind of kilt you are talking about, but I'm kind of figuring out in my own hat/kilt exploration that a hat goes with the over all theme of your outfit. In other words, a ball cap might not go so well with a suit like kilt outfit and so on.

    * Ok, I see from the other posts that it is a brimmed hat. For all I knew, it could have been a cone hat or one of those hats with fruit on it from South America.

    I like it. And besides, any hat with a brim is better than no hat when the sun is blazing down.

    Looks fine to me. Its not my style, but I have seen much worse than that hat worn with a kilt.

    Ditto, I like the hat with that outfit as well. Of course, I am biased as I wear a felt fedora when I am going to be outside for any length of time. I have long since lost my natural cover from the sun!

    I think it looks good, to me the other accessories chosen will tie the entire outfit together. Another thought is that as this is for walking, hiking, outdoor pursuits I think that function is far more important than form anyway, but it looks good as well which is just a bonus.

    Looks good to me, especially since it looks like a hat that I wear!
