What do you think of these?

Don't want to be the negative one, but to be blunt I don't like them, then that is just me. I hated wearing tube socks so much back then now I need to really talk myself into wearing kilt socks when required. It always seemed a bit silly to me to wear shorts when the temperature was high then wrap your legs in long socks.
If wearing sneakers I'd say just wear something like a bicycling or golf sock.

Ok, I know I'm a traditionalist - but I think this might work better with a contemporary kilt - but not so much with a tartan kilt.

This next part is just MY opinion... you might want to hike that kilt up a bit and look for a wider belt. I don't mean to sound so negative but to my eye tartan kilts look better higher (I prefer top of knee) and a wider belt seems to be the right "scale" for a manly garment like a kilt.

Hi,

Another traditionalist here; have to agree with PDCorlis, all the way.

Thanks for the input guys.

I know the tube socks fly in the face of those that hated them in the 80's, but I have to admit, I love them, and have been wearing them longer than I have been wearing a kilt, so for me they're going to stick around!

PDC, I agree on the belt, but I've only had the kilt about 3 weeks and am still trying to accessorize. The thinner belt was much more accommodating than the big buckled one I originally got. I'm working on the belt for sure!

The kilt looks great. The socks, not so much.

I think Phil's points are well taken. To me, the kilt should be the showcased garment. The socks compete with the kilt. It's a beautiful kilt and should be worn for its beauty. Wider belts are better because they finish the kilt's top.
