Thanks for the recommendation. I do have a correction, however - House of Cheviot hose are a very comfortable wearing 50/50 blend of Merino wool and synthetic (mostly acrylic, with a bit of lycra).
I am 6'3" and know others that are 6'4" and taller who wear House of Cheviot hose with no problem. The L and XL sizes are generally 18" tall, heel to cuff. Some of the styles with patterned cuffs are in fact longer, due to the large size of the cuff, so you can get by with even longer legs.
See the range at:

You can find a list of retailers on the web site, including the Scottish Tartans Museum Gift Shop, Keltoi, and Dunnad Trading Company, all of whom are advertisers here.
