Exactly. I have a nice variety of colours when it comes to traditional garter ties (House of Cheviot) and elastic 'flashes,' (Lochcarron) but almost every time I wear kilt hose, no matter what colour they are, I choose the red garters. It's so weird...almost comical.
Don't worry about matching so much. As far as hose colour are concerned, go with any colour except for black and white, and you could pair them with virtually any colour of garter or flash - red always being a reliable standard.
Cheers,
