Anyone interested in 'Australia' Tartan?

Looking good EB, like the hose that you have with it also. Should have both of mine after this weekend. Cheers mate.

They are good aren't they. I bought them in 2009 to go, primarily, with my Brittany Walking.

They are 'Autumn Orange' shooting socks that used to be made by Musto and I bought them through a company called Scotts of Langholm. Unfortunately Scotts have gone to the wall and Musto don't make the socks anymore either so alas, they are doubly unavailable.

I've also had a shuftie on't t'interweb and can't find anything remotely similar, lot's of yellows, reds or dusty pinks but no orange, so I'm lucky to have them I suppose. They do go well with the Australia tartan anyway.

Looking very sharp there EB. I like the hose particularly. What colour and what brand? [Please ignore EB. We cross posted and I see your reply] Sadly I have been at work these past two months and so my kilt wearing opportunities have been exactly zero. Hopefully that will change when I get home next week and I will post some action shots of the Australia kilt asap.

It occurs to me that we have almost simultaneously created 3 kilts from 3 different kilt makers on 3 different continents from the Australia tartan. Some kind of record perhaps? Certainly a wonderful coincidence.
