    Oh yes, quite right David, I can see it now (especially since the cuffs are rather thick!). Thank you for the clarification, as I didn't notice the cuff being "doubled up on itself" when I originally found the photo online. I suppose the hose must have been too long for this particular chap, hence the "doubling up," or perhaps he simply fancies this specific manner of wearing hose as opposed to others, who knows?

    Cheers,

    I believe those are the same hose as I posted before. Note the same colors, but perhaps different lighting.

    Well, I definitely want to thank all whom have taken the time to give advice and suggestions. We've decided to do two sets of hose, one with a solid cuff and one with the castellated top in Matt's photo and literally wear both and decide from there.
