I had a pair of diced hose from J.Higgins. They are synthetic and were not measured to my 16" calves. Being too tight, I gave them away.

I replaced them with some reasonably priced diced hose from Skye Highland Outfitters (See Panache's thread). I have been very pleased with thiese custom fit hose.

Jock - I started this thread back in 2006 and I assure you I have not been worrying too much in the intervening three years.

The Higgins machine-made diced hose are straight-legged, not shaped, so that the pattern is quite distorted around the calves unless you have very thin calves. They would work OK with girls perhaps (though girls who do Highland dancing can have large calves too).

Boy those MacLaren tartan hose match perfectly!!! What a great find.

I recently bit the bullet and ordered full tartan bespoke/custom hose.

They cost $200 but are well worth it. They did an admirable job matching the tartan's odd colours and the fit is perfect. (Well it would have been perfect, but for the fact that I lost 40 pounds between ordering and receiving the hose!)

Here they are...
