Need opinions on Kilt choices

1. What color eyes/hair do you have?

[reformedrepub]

5. Dark Hair

green eyes....

[SoyCat]

10. That makes it even tougher. I would think that you could wear either with that coloring.--

Is either tartan a family tartan? Stick to whichever is a family tartan (if that's the case). If either is a "dress" tartan that would be a good choice for such an occasion.

11. Dress tartran

Im not sure what my family tartan is.....

[SoyCat]

15. Then definitely go with the dress tartan; it's more appropriate.

16. Resistance is futile, Writer

You called it, so go ahead and post the obvious copycat.

Search for deeper answers, the truth beneath the surface ...

23. These links might be helpful

The Scotland Yard: Tartan Finder has a huge number of viewable tartans...

kiltmakers.com...

TartanStore.net's Material Finder...

There's also a forum for kilt-wearers called X Marks the Scot. They have gallery pages over there, too, with pictures of casual kilts all the way up to full-on formal kilts. (The forum also has its own tartan, even!)


I've been looking at kilts myself a lot lately. Can you tell? :P Thinking about getting a casual one later in the year (right now I'm all pasty-legged 'cause it's winter and I have no tan)--I still need to check with my employer and find out if it's okay for me to wear one to work.
