Tam o' Shanter (cap)

Scots caps collectively referred to the three typical Scottish headgear, which are driven primarily by the armed forces of the United Kingdom:

  • Balmoral Bonnet: a kind of beret with tassel in the middle
  • Glengarry Bonnet: a " boat " with relatively long neck bands
  • Feather Bonnet: headgear made ​​of ostrich feathers (similar to the bearskin ) with side tails that hang on the right side to about the shoulder

While these hats " diced " in the military supported ( diced: with a red and white checked pattern at the bottom ), they are common in civilian life without this check.

Balmoral Glengarry and can be worn on all men's suits, while the Feather Bonnett only for dress uniform ( the Scottish Full Battle Dress ) is worn. On all three headgear metal clan or regimental insignia may be worn in addition, as well as colored plumes ( hackles ) for mutual recognition.
