    Many of the older kilts that have been passed down through the generations within various Macpherson families in Badenoch (to include our Chief's family in Blairgowrie) have only two straps. I think two, or three straps are both traditional; it's simply a matter of personal preference. In the past, I have seen many Macphersons, as well as Mackintoshs in Inverness-shire, wearing a kilt with only two straps. The majority of these kinfolk are older gentlemen.

    Cheers,
