I’ve come back and looked at the pictures and video about 3 times and
I just don’t know?

I’m not sure if I like them or not?
(How unusual for me not to have a firm opinion)

I shall follow with interest to learn about the style and any history associated with them.

In the second picture I’m going to say “it seems a younger man style”
Those socks would look great with a black canvas kilt.
And yet in the John Burgess video I think they look lovely and very dashing but still not sure if I like them overall.
