"Viking Style" Brouge lacing?

[FossilHunter]

Not having grown up in a kilt-wearing culture, as I suppose many here can join with, my only route to kilt-wearing is the information available mostly of which is online. There is no “gold standard” available only what can be discovered here and elsewhere but when contrasting views are presented as irrefutable then only confusion is the result. So what does one do? Unquestioningly follow the just one source or seek a range of views. I don’t believe that the socks one chooses or how you tie your shoelaces could ever breach “obscenity laws” so a response of that nature seems unnecessary unless it is an attempt to curtail discussion about aspects which I am seeking to clarify. If, indeed, it is not allowable to raise any questions about entrenched views then all I need to know is that is not something to be raised here and that will be an end to it.

I don’t think anyone here has suggested that high laces or white hose are obscene or that you are not permitted to ask questions about them.

However, if you ask for opinions you also have to be prepared for opinions you may not like. That’s the nature of discourse.
