    I have to side with the no tennis shoe crowd. I haven't worn a pair of tennies since I started wearing kilts. If I'm casual it is usually hiking boots, but on occasion I will wear sandals (no socks - ever).

    I'm sure hiking boots would look good with a kilt, but I don't own a pair, and don't plan on purchasing any just to wear with the kilt.

    It's all about being comfortable - why shouldn't you wear sneakers with the kilt? It doesn't look "proper?" I don't think it looks any stranger than wearing boots with kilt hose pushed/rolled down.

    IMHO, if its a tennis shoe situation, it woudl mean a solid or casual (non-tartan) kilt.
    In that instance, w/tennis shoes, i think the standard white socks (NOT THE ONES WITH THE COLORED BANDS AT THE TOP) are fine & shoudl be scrunched down - they look silly pulled all the way up to the calf. Either that or wear the ones that dont come any higher than the heel so you cant see then above teh shoe at all.
    ITS A KILT, G** D*** IT!
