Good look...BUT..your puttees need to be further round on the ankle, if I can explain this one without a diagram. when you look down at your boots and the two line's of eyelets, the line of stitching to the right of the far right hand line of eyelets on the right boot, and the stitching on the far left of the left hand set of eyelets on the left hand boot are used as a guide to the final position for the line of stiching on your puttees at the point where the puttee is stitched and starts to reduce down to the tape, which in turn is wrapped around the puttee and is finished by turning around its self as you have done in your photos.
This ensures uniformity and neatness of the puttee in relation to the boots.
SORRY EX ARMY..ROYAL ENGINEERS,...I mourned the demise of the putter for the preference of the high leg boot in the 80's.
