Black Tie Combinations

[Steve Ashton]

In answer to the question - I'm not much of a fur guy. I have nothing against fur, it's just not me.
The sporran in the photo is smooth, highly polished leather. It has a chrome formal cantle, not a leather one. This is the most formal sporran I own.

This is also the only time I have ever worn Ghillie Brogues. I don't care for them much. I now wear highly polished Brogued Oxfords for everything but the most formal occasions when I may switch to spit shined, plain oxfords without the broguing.

I have never worn a fly plaid. And won't.

I also do not own an Argyle jacket. I wear a jacket cut for a kilt but without the military influence. Dark charcoal Tweed with horn buttons in the daytime and Black Barathea but with black buttons in the evening.
