    I will echo the praise for AlmostUnwearoutable. They cost a bit to get, but they can be made to your measurements and they are a quality product. I have two pair and will be getting more in different colors in the future.

    Also, check out this thread for casual hose:

    I've found that even some flashes are too small for my legs. Sure the elastic will stretch around my calf. But then it starts to tighten again, so that after wearing them for a while I wind up with a dented ring around my leg where the flashes rest.

    Almost Unwearoutable...

    Add me to the list of Xmarkers who endorse Almost Unwearoutable for quality kilt hose. I own two pair, and they are simply the best kilt hose I have ever owned since I first started wearing Highland attire. Yes, you pay a bit more, but they are worth every penny, and they do live up to their name -- almost unwearoutable.

    Cheers,

    Todd

    For a lower price, but with less selection of colors, there's also Hamilton Dry Goods, which have also gotten good reviews here.

    Tech Bear, Thanks for posting the question. I have been trying to make up my mind about Almostunwearoutable for a few months and after hearing the reviews from other forum members I can feel good about ordering from them. Thanks again!
