    New hose

    I ordered a pair of Glenbeg Kilt Hose in the Burgundy color, I must say they are fantastic. The color on the website is very red and in real life they are a much deeper color. I was hoping the website color was a little bright when I ordered them. Wow they are beautiful and long with a very nice fold over length. Also once again I must say fantastic customer service. My wife just loves the fact that something is sent one day from Edinburgh to Reno, Nevada USA. I didn't even request Fedex just the regular mail but they came Fedex anyway. Hats off and a BIG thumbs up to the Buyakilt.com team.

    yes, I have bought items from them several times and their service is always excellent and extremely fast. I don't know how they do it.

    I really wish that online retailers would learn to color adjust their photographs. I've rarely bought something online that us the same color as the photo.

    @Richrail - Great to hear and thanks for letting us know we're doing a good job.

    I'll look into the colouring on the swatch photo for those hose as we like to make sure they're as close to real life as possible.

    @sailortats - ;-) Must be our secret sauce!

    @Llama - As an online shopper as well, I feel your pain! Unfortunately colours on computers seem to be not quite as simple as they should be. Even if it looks perfect on a properly calibrated monitor, it can be quite different on a different type of monitor that's calibrated differently. However, we'll definitely check out those hose and make sure the image is as close as possible.

    FYI We've now updated the colour swatch for the Burgundy option on our Glenbeg hose: http://buyakilt.com/glenbeg-kilt-hose-8-colours

    Thanks for letting us know it was too light. :-)
