    I heartily agree with those who say to take it out. My typical casual attire includes something like the following:

    13-oz wool Scottish National tank
    Brown 3-inch wide, brass studded belt
    Brown Freelander Mrk III with brown leather sporran strap
    Solid color button down long sleeved shirt...usually tan, brown or black (though I've also worn a polo or tee with this combo if the weather is warm)
    Dark smart wool hiking socks, pushed down (though hose would not be inappropriate)
    Brown Dr. Martens mid-top hiking boots.

    I also have the appropriate accoutraments to do this with black accents instead of brown, in which case, I think ghillies could be appropriate with hose/flashes and the right button down long sleeved shirt.

    I actually don't have anything but tanks and I wear them quite often. Get the tarten out there!

    For a while, I usually wore UK's, but I've switched back to wearing my tanks all the time when I'm in public. I usually do wear kilt hose, especially during the winter. Just looks better to me, even if I happen to have a pair of running shoes on.

    It's like having a Ferrari in the garage, it doesn't do anybody any good unless you take it out for a spin once in a while!!! Wear that puppy with pride! That's best thing about a tank, you can dress them up or you can dress them down... No matter which you choose, you will be the sharpess dressed around..

    Wear that puppy if you feel like it!
