New thread so I won't be stepping on Adam's question. What do you know about these guys? Also, opinions on Advance Highlands?
Thanks
David

I purchased a pair of Kilt Hose from them a few months back. They were not really for guys with large calf's but they have stretched to become comfortable and look nice. I noticed they have changed brands and may not be the same hose I purchased. Delivery was about 2 weeks which I assume is normal for Scotland to the US. As far as the Hose go, I was happy with them.

Do you mean Avance Highland (eBay seller)? I won a Prince Charlie jacket/waistcoat from them. Very pleased; good service, good garments. Only disappointment was in the postal service, but I don't hold that against them.

I've purchased a few things from North of St. Andrew's. No complaints, at all.

I've just ordered a couple of pairs of hose from them, still waiting. Lousy communications so far.

They are slow to answer emails, but are great when phoned. I talked to the sister of the owner (What a delightful conversation!) and she confirmed that this is typical.
The hose I received were just fine. Mid-weight material, good quality knitting. Shipped in good time.
