    I recently discovered this image of the Highland Light Infantry in the Boer War:

    Notice the "colonial" style slouch hats, kilt aprons and the hose tops worn with puttees.

    Cheers,

    Interesting thread.

    But, do the hose tops get tucked into the shoe, or lay on top of the shoe, or what?
