Hector,
The issue is not people looking down on those with limited means.
It isn't about money, it is about quality and appearance.
If a converted kilt jacket is really well done then no one cares if it wasn't made originally as a kilt jacket.
But some cheaper options don't work.
What people are giving here is honest feedback about a product.
Diced hose are for looking your very best in a formal situation.
Matt, Todd, and Glen won't fault you for not being able to afford quality diced hose. But they will suggest that cheaper options will not last and might not look nearly as good.
I bet all three would advise that a good pair of wool solid color hose would be a better option than cheaper acrylic diced hose.
Or they would advocate saving for the "good stuff" as it is worth it.
Honest feedback is not snobbery .
They are trying to help you and others that might be asking the same question.
Cheers
Jamie
