Can I go ahead and declare myself Kilt Hose King?

We were doing some photos today, and my wife wanted one with some (Mind you "some") of my kilt hose on the tea-room table. I took the picture and realized that I have so many kilt hose its not funny......I counted 26 pairs of assorted diced, triced, argyll, etc. (39 if you count solid color hose) -This is a result of getting multiple styles per 1 kilt. Can I go ahead and declare my self King of the Hose (chuckle)?

Whoa! Riverkilt, Hamish, McMurdo, and few others may challenge you to that title. Nevertheless, it is a nice collection.

BTW, the new avatar is that the John Brown goat hair sporran listed on your website?

Paul-
I'm afraid you might fall into one of my hose and never find your way out. I'm probably the size of that fabled gigantapithecus that lurks in the wooded areas just north of me.

And Ern-Yes-It is.

Nice collection, yet are they quality kilt hose, as in, hand made of the finest wool and accurate in design and pattern? Kenneth Short Hosiery...enough said!
