    Re: Lack of burgundy hose in highland stores

    Nice catch on their end. At least it sounds like their customer service department is up to snuff. Let us know how you like the quality of the hose when they arrive. And pictures...!

    Re: Lack of burgundy hose in highland stores

    Very nice! Thanks for posting. I had thought burgendy or claret hose might not go well with my Henderson ancient, but the "color palet" of your tartan is just close enough to convince me otherwise. Gonna have to get a pair of those hose. Thanks!

    Re: Lack of burgundy hose in highland stores

    Greetings,
    May I also suggest the following:http://jas-townsend.com they are a 18th Century vendor and they have heavy maroon cotton hose that they sell to wear with knee breeches, they also have tie leg garters that they can weave in colors that you choose from the website. Explore the site and have fun.

    I have two pair of their maroon hose and am quite pleased with them. Check out the specials page they also have "seconds" in maroon and I have trouble finding the defect in them. They wear just fine and stay up with the standard elastic flashes.

    Regards,

    Brian
