Chukka boots are coming back in, Hamish - I bought a pair of Dr. Martens Chukkas in London in September, and I've seen a lot of them about this season. I think they look great with a kilt - and like you, I generally wear hose down with boots and up with shoes. Chukkas are in sort of a grey area, though - not really high enough to be a proper boot, but not low enough for a shoe. If the boot is padded around the ankle I wear the hose down, if not I think it looks OK with the hose up.
