Best Socks for Tennis Shoes and a Kilt?

[Manu]

Ive never worn tennis shoes with the kilt yet ,but now that my Freedom kilt is on its way, I might do it. In that case, I will wear the really low cut or ankle length socks. You are still wearing socks, but they will not distract from the kilt nor from the shoes.

I wear a basic pair of ankle sox. Thats what I'm wearing right now,along with a Blackwatch Stillwater and Aloha shirt. Ah, the joy of working at home!

I've worn my Adidas Sambas with my MacQueen tartan USAKilt and German National football jersey and it looks just fine.

FTR, I wore plain old Hanes white atheltic socks, rolled down a bit.

I'll add my vote to the ankle socks. If I'm not wearing boots or sandles, low top tennies get the ankle socks.

Contrary to what most people here have said, unless I'm dressing up I always wear running shoes with my kilts (uh-oh, kilts-plural, see other thread). In the winter, I wear kilt hose, but in the summertime I wear low socks, usually SmartWool mini or micro crew height, so they don't really show at all over the tops of the shoes.

I can't actually find any photos right now of myself sporting the sneakers without gaiters (hiking-mode), but I've never had anyone tell me I shouldn't be wearing it that way.

Two of my kilts are made from a "RealTree" style camo material. With those, I sport my typical Vans sneakers and ankle socks. I also sport my Vans when I wear my solid caramel colored flannel kilt, again with ankle socks.
I'd venture to think my Red Wings work boots with my camo kilts would look pretty good. My other two kilts are for RenFaire garb. I don't really wear them at all, but I'll be wearing ghuillies with 'em when I get back to the main land where I can actually go to a RenFaire.
