I gave in
...and bought medium-dark gray hose to wear with my X Marks tartan, while I was at the Enumclaw Games.
...along with my friend Kathy and athlete Jon Thorn, whom we REALLY need to get into a kilt.
So. Hm.
Not that I won't be wearing white hose when I feel like it, and I still love my natural wool hand-knitted hose from the inimitable String, but I DO like these. I cannot stand black hose on myself, personally, but I like the gray.

Just because you happen to like white hose doesn't mean you can't like another color.

The link is not working for me right now. I do have several pair of hose in a myriad of colours one does not have to be tied to white.

Alan, did you get them from The Tartan Thistle? Bought a replacement pair of off-white hose from them, and a pair of charcoal. Both the Piper's kilt hose, like what I have in bottle green, navy, and black...

Actually I had a bad experience with the Tartan Thistle, and I won't shop there again, though really, it's not Maureens fault. She just employees at least one bozo.
I got these at MacKinnons.

They look good! Maybe you can get someone to knit you a pair of tartan hose to go with the Xmarks tartan.
