    hose colors

    I have a couple of pair of cream hose to go with my MacLeod Hunting... what other colors would go (casual of course). I was thinking something green maybe?

    Green would actually be my first choice. Black would work as well as dark blue. Oatmeal hose pair good with any tartan IMO.

    That's what I was thinking, the cream work but there seems to me to be too much contrast. I think they will look better when I get my dress MacLeod of Lewis.

    As the others have said Green, Black, Navy, and Oatmeal would work, I would also say that one trick is matching your hose with your shirt, in that way almost any colour under the sun works. Personally I keep away from Cream or White hose unless I am going to a formal function and my black hose are dirty.
