    It's been asked b4 I'm sure, what about the shirt?

    I currently only have a UK, but a SWK Standard is on the way. The first wearing of my UK (black) was with a white polo shirt, white socks and black boots. I think it looked good. Second wearing I had a black t-shirt (tucked in of course) and now last week a white t-shirt.

    I am looking for advice on shirts that will look good on a MOS with a black UK and SWK Nightstalker. Dickies, two tone, solid polos, etc?

    Here's a thread that has links to a number of traditional shirts suitable for wearing with kilts.

    Whoo-hoo! Finally, a thread I started has been recommended to someone else! Now I feel like a part of th community instead of some nosey big-head (even if that's not true). Cheers, and thanks for the referral.

    You're welcome, Fit2BKilted. I really appreciated that thread. I've been here for a while, and have generally worn either t-shirts or other regular shirts with my kilt because too many of the "kilt" shirts look like costumes to me. I was happy to see alternatives that were kilt appropriate without looking like a re-enactment of Braveheart (apologies to Braveheart fans)

    My favorite place to get kilt shirts is the Ralph Lauren discount rack my local department stores. Anytime I find a solid Polo shirt in a color that matches my kilt, it's mine.

    If you have a Clan connection some have nice golf shirts in many colors with the clan badge on the chest, those are nice!

    What are those safari type shirts with the epaulets on the shoulders, aren't they pilots shirts or something?

    A nice rugby always works. I wear a button down with french points for a little dressier approach. I like the dark Henley t's as well! JMHO

    Try L.L. Bean -- my "safari" shirt came from them.
