    I'm no piper but I wear piper hose all the time. Like these



    There may be two meanings to "piper". White hose commonly considered Piper Hose and the socks above that are similar to piper hose in style but come in a few different colors.

    I'd steer clear of the white just because they don't look as nice with most outfits.

    Scottish Lion carries Pipers Hose in a variety of colors including true white for $22 a pair, and if you order $100 shipping is free. Following is there description:

    Featuring "popcorn" tops, these hose are very popular with pipe bands and anyone who wears the kilt. 80% acrylic and 20% nylon. Warm wash only. Colors available: Navy, White, Lovat Blue, Lovat Green, Bottle Green, Highland Green, Charcoal, Stone, Arran, Black

    Although not wool they are very comfy, fairly thick, and attractive with their patterned tops.

    Yes, I know about Scottish Lion's hose. I have a pair of their castellated red-and-white diced hose. A bit pricy at $110, but they are quite unique and get a lot of attention.
