    Brown kilt hose - while stock lasts!

    Hey folks!

    I know our Lewis hose line is very popular with many of you:
    http://giftshop.scottishtartans.org/hose_lewis.htm

    I have recently been informed that the color we have listed simply as "brown" (the hose to the far left in the picture on the web site), is being discontinued. I have a bit of every size in stock currently, but once they sell out, I cannot get any more.

    The good news is that the color is being replaced by a different, slightly darker shade of brown. One might call it a "charcoal brown."

    Once I get new stock in, I'll take photos and post them for you. But for now, I still have some of the old brown color (which is a nice mid-brown) left. If you ever thought about getting hose in this color, take the opportunity now!

    Matt,

    Does your stock include any of the hose for large calves?

    Brown is flashy! Glad I already have a pair for my Buchanan Hunting.

    Matt,

    What are the other colours in that picture...I notice the brown is lighter than the swatch. I'm specifically interested in the red or brick. I have a new maple leaf tartan and ordered ancient red flashes that I thought would match. Of course the colour was completely different in person. Just wondering if your brick red might work. Is that the colour in your picture??

    Thanks very much,

    Sorry no, these are just the regular size, for calves up to 16".

    The other colors in that pic are St. Andrews blue, Loden green, and claret. I think the claret would be a better match for your Maple Leaf. The "brick red" is just a slightly darker shade of red, but still very much red.
