I think that GDub was looking at a recent thread that Glen and I did showing how a traditional kilt can be worn from Very Casual to White tie and wanted to get at something perhaps that we had missed....

Jaime is correct, kinda sorta. My point was ultra casual at home--chill style. Not out in the world casual. What do you all wear when you're kilted at home when no one else is around, save your partner and/or kids. I wouldn't dress the way I am in the pics if I was going out in public--well, maybe out and back to the corner store.

Looking at the pictures so far (excluding Glen's efforts and mine as we are cheating and wearing modern kilts) I think that GDub and Rogerson are the only ones truly showing "Ultra Casual" with a tartan kilt. I think the key elements are (1) not wearing a sporran, (2) t-shirt, and (3) very casual (or no) footwear.

Sorry -- I didn't connect the dots.

Yeah, t-shirt, kilt and bare feet aren't unusual on a lazy weekend around Rancho de la Phoggy.

Y'know, though, wearing a kilt without a bunch of other accessories might send a message: that the kilt is just another article of clothing. It's not just something you wear when you're piping or when the Highland games are in town. They're a very viable (and comfortable) alternative to pants.

Problem is, I can't see going out with a sporran. Where would I keep my stuff?

I would say this is ultra casual for public functions since I have a belt, non-traditional sporran, boots and hiking socks scrunched down. Also, notice the matching socks, t-shirt, which ties in nicely with the color in the kilt and the black, brings everything back down towards a more casual appearance without going overboard.

Thanx for the pix of you in your Birks. I'll wear mine at home, around the house, but as of yet have not ventured kilted very far with them on. For me there is an at home look, like coming home after school and changing into my kilt, some sloppy hose/socks and my Birks and a going out in public look, which for me is a tad more dressy: hose, garter ties, lace up shoes, sporran, etc. but still very casual.
