    Well, it's a nice tie anyway.

    O'Neille, that was funny!

    Phil,

    I like bowties as well. I think that they look wonderful when paired with a tweed jacket, a sweater vest, and a fedora. I don't think they would go so well with a kilt though, except for a formal outfit.

    Where do you get yours? I keep an eye out at the thrift shops for them as most stores nowdays don't seem to carry them.

    Cheers

    Jamie

    Hi Jamie

    I think they can work with a kilt - but more likely a tweed kilt and tattersall shirt rather than a tartan kilt. I too keep my eyes open but seems they are scarce as hen's teeth these days - so I make my own.

    There was a site I saw a long time ago that had tartan bow ties. I can't remember what the site was and can't seem to find it now.
