what kilt hose to wear?

[McMurdo]

Stay away from the white and oatmeal hose with formal dress in the evening. Stay away from them like the plague! Diced or tartan hose are what's needed, but lacking those options, solid colours such as the lovat blue will do.

Absolutely spot on, for my money anyway nothing beats diced or tartan hose, I was looking through an older publication at my Aunt's house today, of the men in an advertisement for a highland wear store none of the models were wearing white hose.
