Options for matching hose and flashes.

My friend always wears bottle green hose and tartan flashes with the Black Stewart and it looks great.

I wore this Men’s Crossroad Cricket shirt form Exofficio with ancient red flashes and I thought the shirt and flashes went really well with the kilt.

Or you could just wear the red soccer socks like I did.

I have the greens covered in both hose and flashes. Would dark blue work?

I've worn Navy blue with the Black Stewart tartan, really any colour in the tartan will work. I've also used the matching shirt and hose like this

The hose would have to be a very DARK blue, like the LAPD blue it almost looks black or midnight blue, as long as its not light blue. The rule of thumb I use is that if I lay the kilt out, pair it with a shirt, and hose if there is something that just doesn’t look right then I'll swap out the shirt first because I only have two pairs of hose. I may be wrong, but I think if your shirt, hose and kilt have similar colors then you should be OK. Some people are braver than others are when it comes to color combinations, but then again we are all a brave lot for being kilted.

Coming home tonight from class I got stuck in traffic at a light and sat there looking down at my Black Stewart. The sun was shining thru the window and I started to pull colors from the kilt thinking which one(s) would work well to match. I sensed motion in front of me and looked up and to my left and there was a van full of Aspen worker bees next to me staring, pointing and chuckling. Of course I was sitting at the light staring at my crotch flipping the front apron trying to let the light hit it a different way.
Red seems to be the predominant color to try and the rest have hit on several other options I can work with, considering my current collection. Thanx all!
