I was looking for something to add to my Scottish look, and I, on a lark, tried the tam. I was surprised with how I like it, though to be honest, I've yet to wear it with my kilts. It;s a little over the top, I think, to add to a kilt look. The tam itself is fine, the only complaint I have is the pompom at the top fell off after a few uses but was easily sewn back on. Would I buy it again? I don't really know, I don't regret the purchase, just not sure the look is right for me. But that is a personal view, your opinion may vary. The tam itself is fine.
