I am not in any way wishing to stir up a "hornets nest" but I do find it strange and amusing that you chaps will wear the Scottish kilt quite happily and baulk at wearing perfectly typical Scottish bonnet.

No "stirring" needed. Deer Stalkers are seen atop heads in the local Montana winters quite commonly. I'm just more comfortable in a Balmoral or Glengarry. My dad was fond of his fedoras, and my wife's dad was never separated from his Stetsons, but I wear neither, ever.

I'll keep searching for a nice wool "fore and aft."

And here we have a "stalker", then a "Sherlock" next to it. Then farther down the page we have another "stalker" that looks like a Sherlock.

Ah yes! The labelling shambles that I mentioned to OCR a wee while ago. One thing that is required is that an open mind is handy when discussing these bonnets, as talking at cross purposes is almost a certainty!!!
