    I can't remember seeing another image of folded-over castellated hose like that.

    There appears to be a seam around the top, so that the hose might be permanently in that orientation.

    About the contrast, it was common in Victorian times for tartan or diced hose to have "marl" turnover cuffs, so I'm not surprised to see hose having tops that contrast with the body of the hose. My castellated hose are like that.
