kilthose styles

Hi Everybody

In Japan you can buy very high quality Argyle hose for about US $ 22.00 a pair this hose is made in Japan and sold direct from the company's website ( In Japanese ) & the hose is also available from most good outdoor stores here. As some Japanese love to wear trad hiking gear and pretend they are hiking through the Swiss Alps in their Argyle hose & wool knickerbockers . I bought a pair of this hose quite a while back and the hose I purchased from my local outdoor shop come up over my knee but I've since found out they they are available in shorter lengths & a wide range of colors. If anybody is interested in obtaining some of these , let me know I guess with postage to the US ( for example ) they would work out to be about US $ 28.00 with postage. Here is a link to the site below , I'm sorry it's in Japanese but you can see what the offer etc

My only caution on these particular hose would be that they may not match an individual's tartan -- remember that tartan hose are usually made to match the tartan of your kilt.

Just my twa bob's worth...
