    Heaven forbid, what book were you carrying?

    I would certainly recommend a long sleeve shirt. If you choose a print, make the pattern small and complimentary to your kilt. The thread count should be dense to allow less wind. One consideration should be wrinkles while packing. An iron is impractical to pack when room is a commodity. However a laundry in Ireland can be used. A heavy cotton blend, linen and even hemp shirts are the weight I would choose.

    I only wear shoes that I am comfortable in for long periods. Consider the removal and inspections of the airports. I wear wingtip Rockport for look and comfort. I even have a new pair of low cut Wolverine boots for winter (wet mud in Mississippi) that will be fine for my kilt. These are just the footwear I have and not necessarily the best or worst shoes available. Hope this is something to work with.
