From a fashion perspective, I tend to agree, however, from a practical outdoorsman point of view, I don't. The wide brim hat is functional for shading the eyes and general protection. I'm waiting on my first kilt, specifically for hiking and backpacking. It will be a utility kilt but I can see myself wearing a kilt casually in the future.
The Scottish traditional workman's flat cap is called a 'Bunnet' as in bonnet. It was never worn with a kilt but why not break tradition once in a while. The actual highland bonnet was quite wide and fell to one side to cover the side of the face. Military berets do a similar thing.
There are many historical victorian and Edwardian photos of peaked caps, being worn by the Royals and their gillies.
I've been a fedora wearer for decades, and the look suits me fine. An "hourglass shape", as Eric puts it, is for women only! 😉 I agree that a baseball cap would look hideous. I may try an Aussie slouch-hat to see if that would work.
News boy and flat cap look great
For every day where I just find that the flat cap is the best looking.
I wear a top hat with pheasant feathers on it
I've seen while in Scotland a small brimmed fedora with a kilt.
What about a boogie hat with rolled sides for hiking and camping? What do you think? Or should this be saved for the next, 1st Friday?
What about tam bonnets? They resemble berets...but have seen them worn at highland games in the past. They are like the one w the ball on the top, but not. One would go as far as describe them a chef's hat but flat and usually worn off to the side.
Flat caps for life.
I don't look good in a Tilly hat since they are made for slender people. I wear a flat cap, baret, or Aussie if it is really sunny (I don't like getting sunburned).
ibn the past i was waering a normal baseball cap , and some people told me i was not wearing th eright hat for a kilt ect, they tough the ballmoral or glengary is the only hat you shoudl wear with a kilt
i do desagree but im not much of a cap wearer other htan my ballmoral bonet or glengary hat
Its a Tweed hat??

aerugo = n (esp. of old bronze) another name for verdigris. [C18: from L, aes copper, bronze]
Aesculapian = adj of or relating to Aesculapius, the Roman god of medicine, or to the art of medicine.
Thing that REALLY annoys me and many Scotsmen are guilty of this too is, when ye wear a Glengarry, bring the tip of it down to very close, I wear mine about a half inch above my eyebrows( aye, everyone will be different!) And tilt it to the right! There is not a worse look than someone wearing one and it tilted right back.
I agree, the Glengarry is a military style head cover and does NOT look good worn back on the head. If not worn cocked to the right and forward on the head, at least wear it forward and squared up on the head. That's a much better look with the Glengarry than worn back on the head.
Exactly, in this day and age of everyone greetin about cultural appropriation and half the pipe band world are walking about mixing and matching military dress and looking like brass band clowns 🤡 makes me fume 🤬 and 🤢 vomit at the same time!!!
@scottishjamie1267 Yes, given the military foundation, or at least, background of pipe bands if they wear the Glengarry, it looks more sharp and squared away if worn properly. Otherwise, the Balmoral may be a better choice. In fact, I modify my Balmorals by removing the liner inside them when I purchase each new one. I do that for several reasons. I live in a much hotter climate than Scotland. I don't need the extra layer in my Balmorals. Plus, I like the lay of the cover a bit better without it. Cheers Jamie!
the hat that Sean Connery wears in Indiana Jones is called a Trilby
You mean harrison ford
@@DannyBoi2112 He was correct, Harrison Ford is wearing a Fedora.
What about a top hat, not a stove pipe but a shorter top hat
I’m like rocky and not a big hat guy, but out of curiosity since it wasn’t mention what about a top hat?
We don't recommend them - not if you want to be traditional, at least. If you're getting your steampunk or Slash on, anything goes.
Baseball caps really don't look good with a Kilt, but then again I don't think utility Kilts are a good look either.
I'm more traditional, even in casual mode.
Got an Irish flat cap, Balmoral, and Glengarry, love 'em all.
I hate to reference "Outlander" as a source, but I really like the large, slouchy beret-like hats the Highlanders wear. Are they only appropriate to wear with a great kilt, or can they be respectably worn with a modern kilt? Also, do you carry them, and what are they properly called?
They are called caubeens. I wear one with my kilt.

Thanks so much, Stan! Took a trip (from Texas) to Scotland in August of 2022 and attended the Royal Military Tattoo in Edinburgh. Highlight of my trip!! The formal attire worn by the bagpipers and other performers was total eye-candy!! Love, love, love kilts!
Thanks, again!
In everyone of your videos, Rocky, you have a travel mug in your left hand but never drink from it. Is this a Dumbo thing like hie feather?
If you watch the FULL videos, I do indeed drink from it. Gotta have my coffee! :-)
Just kidding Rocky! @@USAKiltsOfficial
The Irish regiments in the military, wear a rifle green caubeen
Shoot me a picture of you have one, please? Also, if you know the time span over which it has been issued, I'd be curious.
@@USAKiltsOfficial go to the band of The Royal Irish Regiment,
on TH-cam, my friend
@@johncherry2205 Irrelevant not the irish army
I. Wear me tam
That's disappointing about the brimmed hat. I need something to keep the sun off of my head and ears out in this hot Texas Sun when I'm out at the Ren Faire
Nothing wrong with cowboy hats, true they look weird with a kilt unless maybe the cowboy hat has curved up brim on the sides. And cowboy boots wouldn't look right with a kilt either. and obviously not with shorts either unless you're woman.
Bruh where in "the pop culture scene" have u seen dudes wearing fedoras with kilts
“Ten gallon hat” for the love god NO!!! If you did do that you’d have to war the boots also so you look twice as ridiculous. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh u know these dudes have fetlife accounts
