I have taken some photos of my kilt hose which might be more help to you -

These are in ancient Lindsay and will be 60 years old next year, here is the receipt when they were bought





And these are Galbraith tartan bought only a few years ago



Both have a seam at the back of the leg - you should be able to see that on the Lindsay hose quite clearly.

Indeed it does, although that was pre-decimal and equates to £7.75 in today's mone. There was also purchase tax of £2 15 shillings and sixpence or £2.77 to be added on so a total cost of £10.52-a cool US$15.42. Here it is -



And how about US$14.95 for a Montrose doublet then? Here it is 59 years later -
