    Wow first time I have seen this thread, well thought out.
    Never wore a Pith helmet before, but it does set the outfits up.
    Kind wishes.

    I must say the first example of dressy shown here(Panache) looks very much like my old School tie (Dark Blue with red roses on it) I'd be very much impressed if it was.

    Sorry for not using names, I'm new and not quite sure who people are.

    Kane,

    Sorry to disappoint. It's navy blue with red rampant lions

    In the UK I've only ever heard it mentioned as The Lion Rampant, rampant lions are something completely different and somewhat innapropriate. That may just be the me and the few Scots I know though.

    Of all the things I liked; the hose, the jackets, shirts, hats, etc...the Sporrans are incredible. That is an investment of $$$ Good Job Lads!

    Thumbs up Huzzah!

    Jamie and Glen, excellent post from esteemed members!! Guidance (and visuals) like this is much appreciated! And I do agree with our UK brethren (THE UK, not Utilikilt) that the flexibility afforded here helps greatly when you only own one or two kilts . . . Now I don't worry about showing up to kilt night in the same tartan!

    If I show up in my SportKilt, however . . .

    Of course, with temps well over 105 out here, maybe a light, simple "kilt" is the way to go . . .
