    Still looking to a proper pair of blue hose, also... do you think the kilt pin should be off the stripe into the black?
    Now that you mention it (and I had to really look for where it is located in your pic - I didn't notice it the first time I looked), it could come in toward the center of the apron a little bit, and you could bring it up an inch or two and put it across the horizontal red stripe (mid-thigh), take it down and center it in the black square, or further down across the lowest red stripe.

    In addition to blue hose, you could also go with claret or bottle-green hose, or be really bold and daring and go for mustard yellow!

    Absolutely appropriate and very well done. I like the dark blue shirt; makes it seem a little more business like. I agree with your assessment of the hose; black hose look fine but blue or green would contrast better.

    Simon Fraser fought as MacShimidh, a Highland chief… wrapped and belted in a plaid over the top of his linen shirt, like his ordinary kinsmen. He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.
