    I wore them for 23 years. Cocorans are comfortable and long wearing, but I wouldn't wear them with a kilt...too military for my thinking.

    To me any (almost) black boot will look good with the Stewart Black including the one pictured. But, it smacks of military and/or SWAT team. If that's the look you're after, go for it! Loch and load!

    But, if you restricted the height of the upper to 6", more or less depending on your taste, it would lose the combat look and just look "modern" and "cool". And that advice is worth everything you're paying for it.

    Good luck on your choice, and by all mean let us see the finished product.

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    I guess those biker boots look way better on you: http://bit.ly/14344mt . Does someone knows the exact name or just the brand name? Yes, there are male argyle thights out there in the exact same pattern and he is wearing a Utility kilt. http://hosieryformen.blogspot.de/201...s-for-men.html

    Beat me too it.... :-) I knew those LPCs were Corcorans, I have spent enough time polishing them to perfection. I follow your thoughts as well.

    I've worn those with my Black Watch; there's a photo on post number 331 of this thread: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...4/index34.html.

    I liked them quite a lot, and wish I had some still, but mine have since bitten the dust. Great boots, really long wearing and comfortable!

    Cheers,

    Cameron
