I just posted a similar question on the thread about Keifer Sutherland et al..
Not unlike the kilt hire shop syndrome we deal with, when the unknowing frequently see the kilt worn the same way (white hose, gillie brogues, PC jacket, fly plaid) or in high profile situations by famous people (Dressed to Kilt), they assume what they see is the right way. The more it matches their own style of dress the more likely they are to emulate it. We see that part here, and I am completely guilty of it, with matching color leathers and not mixing different patterns of fabric.
