Of course you can wear your fedora. Some people won't like it, but those folks are not always representative of everyone. Go with what works for your personal style.

I'm not a big fan of threads like this one. No offence meant to the OP, but these types of threads usually end up going sour.
Can someone wear a fedora with a kilt -- sure. Should you? I suppose it depends on whether you are a "traditionalist" or not when it comes to your kilt kit. If you are, and you express the opinion that a fedora is not traditional with Highland attire, you're labeled a curmudgeon and your insights should automatically be ignored.
If wearing kilts are all about "freedom", then the "freedom" should extend to those who want to wear their kilts traditionally as well.

If anyone is brave/foolish/discourteous enough to genuinely not care about others' opinion, then why post on the forum? If one merely seeks uncaring approval, then asking a large number strangers is a bad idea, for some will surely differ. Personally, I enjoy the fact that members express different views. I will defend to my last breath anyone's right to dress as he pleases, but if my opinion is asked, I will give it honestly, even if it ruffles feathers....

I think people ask for opinions to get different points of view in order to make a more informed decision. That said, asking for an opinion does not obligate you to agreeing with the opinion or to following the advice that is offered.
If opinions are offered (and received) in a gentlemanly manner, without rancor and condemnation of differing points of view, we do not have to worry about ruffled feathers. Some people will see an offense where none is offered, but that really can not be helped.
