Just wear the hose toppers lower and turn the other hose over them. Worn like this the toppers work great with boots and even look good with low shoes (without needing spats).
Both came off of Ebay. The heavy hand knit hose were the real score though...the seller just threw them (and a very nice pair of wool flashes) in with a pair of $30 used ghillie brogues. I'm certain the value of the hose and flashes far exceeded the cost of the shoes.
