This is I find an interesting thread!

In a book I have on Tartans, there are drawings of the different tartans being worn.
Some of the depictions are of supposedly historic attire, wheras others are contemporary to the time when first published. (maybe late 40's?)

Some show gentlemen out shooting, wearing the kilt And deerstalker. Yet now, this appears as much a no-no as the flat cap.
Is this correct, or is the deerstalker acceptable to a greater degree than the flat cap?
The answer will be purely academic to me, as my old 'for and aft' is 30+ years old, and past it's best anyway!
