    James, if you mean the Lewis hose: they are simply luxurious. I have 3 pairs, and my feet love them.

    These are a little thicker than the average kilt hose (avoid tight shoes); but they look and feel great.

    You've gotten some good choices here and Matt having the fabric in his very own clutches is in a good position to advise.


    BUT

    David beat me to what is fast becoming a favorite of mine -- black hose, black shirt and red flashes (or matching tartan) would be what I'd wear with that one.
