American tourists in Scotland

I'm just joking, Jock.

I really would rather knee breeches, hose in or out, would come back into fashion for dress up or casual.

Ted,

Perhaps you should try colonial reenacting. They wear knee breeches on a regular basis - and I can attest that they are quite comfortable. In fact, I'm looking forward to attending a 5 day event this time next month where I will be attired in knee breeches every day (except if I decide to wear a great kilt instead) - and not think twice about it.

And I happen know that down in Ted's neck of the woods there are Spanish Colonial reenactors, all wearing said knee breeches

I suppose that is an option again. I did have a very short time with the reenacting folk just before I joined the forum. Also, I do have the colonial/George Washington length hair, and wear it tied back as they might.

Still, I think a non- reenacting,and a bit modern, style for knee breeches et al, would be nice.
