Need help! (White hose and in-laws)

[TheOfficialBren]

I'm always fascinated by the "White Hose Debates" here, I don't think there is anything else that insights quite so much passion! Reality check: They are socks - you like them or you don't, that's it and to h**l with the kilt police (not that there are any here, just genuine advice offerers)!

As far as the OP is concerned, if you like them, just wear them. If not, since they were a gift to get you started towards your kilt outfit, then I think it would be good manners to wear them at least once, if only to say "See what you started..." and then put them in a drawer where they can be quietly "forgotten".

But whatever floats your boat!

Yes. This. All of this.
