I’ve just fallen in love with the look of it (I’ll normally wear them with a grandfather shirt or t shirt and leave the tails behind me instead of pinning to the shoulder in ‘traditional Highlander’ fashion. I really enjoy the kind of tribal, rugged look of it and it keeps it, to me anyways, from looking too costumey. Really appreciate the input!
Rest assured that if you dress as you wish then you WILL be be looking “ costumy” and you will certainly not be attired traditionally. Historically attired perhaps although the tartan won’t help. However, it’s your outfit and your life and you have the choice to dress as you please.
