Hello the rabble,

I have overheard considerable disdain for the stereotypical kilt hire white hose. I am not advocating for these, and I don’t care for them myself. My principle complaint is that they’re nearly always offered with Highland black tie when Argyle or diced hose are in fact correct.

With that said, is there a specific, traditional argument to be made against white hose in other contexts? I have a pair in ivory cable knit, and wonder if similar derision might be directed at these.
