Much like a regular cowboy belt, but upscaled to kilt width.


    *Edit: The above is the belt/buckle combination that Tobus describes... I just happened to have a photo of it.

    Re: "Western" Style with Contemporary Kilts

    i stopped wearing dress shoes in the 90's and have been wearing cowboy boots with suits, slacks, etc. i wore cowboy boots for both my own and several friends' weddings with a tux. the only time i wear shoes is to work out. but i do not think i will wear cowboy boots with a kilt--doc martens for me.

    i do have my eye on western vests for kilt wear since they are waist cut.

    even though i was born in austin, texas, i was whisked away as a toddler before cowboy hats and country music took hold.

    Kilted cowboys!?!? OK, I guess...whatever floats your boat. Must hail from the Wild West of Scotland...
