Considering that the kilt is Highland garb, and was never the dress of Lowlanders of yore, I would think that it would be a rather anachronistic combination to wear a kilt of Kendal Green in an attempt to honour this sentiment. That is to say, Kendal Green may have established provenance in the Lowlands, but probably not in the form of a kilt. It might be a nice modern nod to this fabric, though, especially if it were to become an iconic Lowland version of the new pan-Celtic icon, the kilt. Much like the Irish saffron kilt.
