do I wear womens hose?

I would love to have flashes in every color, that would be neat. I gave away some orange flashes last week, so now these are the only ones I have. I paid 27.00 dollars for them.

Dooh! Stillwater has them at a "little better" price.

Not being argumentative, just discussing, there is blue in the tartan, maybe very dark, but it's there. Along with Green, red and black.

You could wear that tartan with virtually anything with a little effort.

I have a friend that buys nothing but womens shoes and hose. He has a 7 1/2 narrow foot. Evan small kilt hose are too big in the foot.

I think they look ok. But that is just my opinion....I could be wrong.

hate to say this but I found some great looking kilt style hose at target stores
cream,black grey in a knit pattern wear great and $5.99 a pair you can wear them hard and not feel bad when they wear out .

Dan, it's a great start for an outfit. You could wear that shirt, although it seems a darker or more maroon red than the tartan. This is highly dependent on your camera, lighting, and my monitor, though. Could also try to match shirt to hose, or go for a neutral color shirt such as tan, white, black, khaki.

Yup, blue and green both, with red dominating. It looks like this may be an ancient color scheme? If the blue and green don't match up to SWMBO's eye, then perhaps it's modern with a darker shade blue/green.

From what we've seen, I think the hose work well. These flashes are OK if they are close or complementary to the tartan. As someone mentioned, check for the threads on making garters with a spool knitter. If you like small crafts projects, you could make several colors of garter ties for less than another set of elastic garters and flashes.

Congrats on the new kilt & kudos to its former owner.

I should get one of those knitting things...

I do have odd shaped calves. Here they are, when I eyed them in the store, I thought they would go with my MacNaughton, well...they don't. But for 19 bones I will keep them.

I think they look good with the kilt. Maybe try them with a black shirt and black flashes?
