Clan tartan ties, unforgivable sin?

[O'Callaghan]

Sometimes the kilt police on this site get a bit ahead of themselves.....but things are usually forgiven by almost everyone if you are an icon such as Mr Connery here .....I'm still in favour of doing what makes ya' happy as long as you do it with respect to the kilt....Tradition has to start someplace and as "the old guard" die off who knows maybe a new tradition will start with yourself.....just my opinion though

You have to realise that Sean Connery is an Edinburgh Scot of Irish extraction, and AFAIK has no clan, either Scottish or Irish. OTOH, he is a Scot, and if he wears a matching tie and kilt, however loosely the word matching is taken to mean, it can't be all bad.
