Especially since you're going to be at the Clan Murray booth I would think that the number one priority item would be a kilt in Murray tartan. You'll be hanging around with the various Clan people, and they know their tartans!

For anyone who knows tartan, a Black Watch kilt will be perceived as a Black Watch kilt, or a Clan Campbell kilt, because Clan Campbell has long used the Black Watch tartan as one of their own.

Personally I would put off all other Highland Dress expenditures until I got my nice wool Clan tartan kilt, if I were representing my Clan at Highland Games.

Just for reference, here are Murrays at the Murray tent at a US Highland Games, showing the sorts of dress one typically sees here.



Note the golf shirts embroidered with logos, and the military-style shirt. It looks like the pirate/Jacobite shirt is also embroidered.
Well I don't want to be mistaken for a Campbell, that's for sure. Murrays and Campbells are old rivals. Wonder why they can claim it as their own.
