Artroland, I give you the poet Burns:

Poor devil see him o'er his trash,
His spindle shank a guid whip lash
His nieve a nit.
Through bloody flood or field to dash, Oh how unfit!

Not being possessed of them, I believe that thick calves look very well with a kilt and kilt hose.

Admittedly, very little looks better in any clothes than a six foot two frame, with long bones all over, but I agree with Burns- sturdy calves do better than skinny ones.
