    Yellow/Mustard hose

    I wear a dark yellow shirt with my Leatherneck tartan often and it brings out the yellow stripe nicely but I need a pair of socks to match. I've been looking around but I can't seem to find any yellow/mustard kilt hose anywhere other than getting a $100+ pair custom knitted. Has anyone seen any around?

    Yellow/mustard hose have become quite popular over here in the shooting world.They are worn with the "breeks/plus 4"type of gear.I wear a pair of mustard hose regularly with my shooting suit.I am not sure I would wear that colour with the kilt though.Interestingly, burgundy hose colours are being worn more and more with the kilt,for day wear----very smart.

    Now we would call this colour Ochre. We have knitted quite a few in this shade but mostly for use with the plus2s, and plus4s. Calana Crafts
