    So from that I would say that they can be worn either casually or formally.
    Or on the other hand, one could say that they don't work really well in either situation, neither fish nor fowl.

    I do not as yet own any Balmoral hose, my Argyll hose are being knit right now and should be to me for Burns Night, however I really must disagree with your assessment. Balmoral hose to me anyway are a way of elevating a dressy outfit, and as Matt has stated they ensure the outfit is unique and a step above the norm. They seem to be a modern take on Argyll hose, perhaps I am mistaken with that assumption but that is what strikes me with them. I think they are quite handsome and will order a pair or two at some time.
