    This is another of those examples of a group of people that demand tolerance for one article of clothing suddenly turning judgmental over another.

    Can anyone tell me why they actually make clothing in different colors? Could it be that different people might want different colors? What incredible cheek, eh?

    Indeed sir, I agree with you and well spoken. To each his own. Personally I think white/cream hose are dreadful on men in kilts. I only add my opinion here in case someone is viewing for opinions and weighing options.

    On ladies? Another matter entirely. Slainte,

    Just say NO to white hose...unless of course, there is some white in your kilt.

    OK, you've lost me. If we are talking black tie tux what are they renting that is not appropriate? In general I think a tux rental is basically the same as a bought tux, save for the quality of the outfit. Not being a smart a**, I honestly don't understand what your getting at.

    You must not be familiar with younger guys going to their first formal events.

    Well when I was everyone else was wearing powder blue and peach tuxes, I insisted on mine being black. So it's possible I don't . Today my contact with young guys being dressed in formal attire is for weddings and usually when I have had input into their outfits. but what I'm alluding to with the white hose/rental kilt argument is I don't see an equivalent argument in the tux industry. Whether in a rental or a bought tux most men are happy to show up looking pretty much the same(there is an old joke about that). Now maybe since the tux rental industry is bigger than the kilt rental industry it can have more options in the accessories. I don't know.

    I've got 3 pairs of off white hose, a pair of black, pair of dark blue, and pair of maroon/burgundy hose.

    The white ones were cheap, 3 pairs cost me the same as one of my other pairs of hose. thus why I own 3 pairs.
