    Schultz - I'm 5'8" and never get a double-turn thanks to 19.5" calves.

    Piper's Cove sells one wide-calf hose in off-white for $45 (ouch) that works if you have the feet to go with it. I'm a 9.5 EE/EE and have a bit too much foot left over in the hose.

    Iolaus - those look like they're worth checking out for knock-around wear. Thanks for the link!

    Sounds like some of you guys, besides learning how to make kilts, are gonna have to learn how to knit socks.

    How about a readymade cuff? Pull your sock up over a part of it then fold a readymade double turnover down over the top. Just find someone that can knit real well.

    That is worth checking out for one good pair of off white hose. That's still cheaper than the custom made ones.
