    Iain,
    Have you seen the Casual pics page? This should help you decide what looks good to you.

    Thanks! I had not been aware of that. I saw lots of lads (and a few lasses) in hiking boots, and it seemed to me that in all but a very very few the hose were "relaxed."

    But they all looked fine, so I'm going to at least take my flashes along ...

    Thanks for all the helpful advice!

    I usually wear wool socks and hiking boots. Comfy, yet tasteful.

    Are you talking ragg wool socks? That is my normal hiking/backpacking sock with a silk liner, but had never considered wearing them with my kilt. The ragg socks I have are black with gray specks. Hmm....

    I just went to Sport Chalet and bought five pairs of 100% wool socks. I wear them about every day, and I also wear my hiking boots most every day.

    As I said, it's all about comfort for me.

    As many have said previously, wear what you feel will be most comfortable in. If your feet aren't happy, you won't be happy.
