solid colour kilting

Oh - just one more opinion from myself. I feel a jacket matching the kilt would look great with a tartan waistcoat (that doesn't clash) underneath. Hose could match the secondary tartan in the waistcoat, which does not correspond to the kilt and a tie that does match the kilt and jacket. Just an idea... I'll try it out if I get the chance!

I just got myself a solid green kilt... it's quite light, especially compared to the shadow green you have. I'll mainly be wearing it for a more 'modern' look on kilting, such as with typical post-modern t-shirts that I usually wear with jeans. To top this I'm still looking into getting a contemporary sporran, as I wouldnt wear the kilt without one. I feel if you wear a sporran with a kilt then people are pretty ingorant, or uneducated to think it is a skirt.

If you're going for an Irish look then why not get yourself a Dropkick Murphys t-shirt? I couldn't imagine anything better to enhance a modern, kilted, Irish casual outfit!
Also - you may be a Raptors fan (boo!), but things like the Boston Celtics when supported outside MA would suggest to most people an Irish connection, and also enhance a modern Irish look.

I'd love to see some pics of your modern look as well as the dressed up one you've described. Hopefully you get the chance As for a contemporary sporran, what are you looking at? Something like Sporran Nation?

Of the Raptors, I'm not such a fan I do, however, have a green tee shirt with Father Jack (from the Father Ted tv show)... I'll try it out when I get my kilt back from being hemmed.

Yes! I love the sporran nation stuff, but I'm still working up the guts to pay that much!
I'll hopefully get pics asap... and I'm planning to wear it out and about with thick black hose sort of pushed down the leg and solid black Nike 'boot' hi-tops. I'll see when I'm putting it all on, though!
