    Yes, they're really lovely. A special based on the hose worn by the Atholl Highlanders.

    The Duke of Argyll often wears hose of a similar color.

    Far be it for me to question this, particularly as I have not viewed the Atholl Highlanders for more than year or two, but, my rather imperfect memory tells me that the red hose that the Atholl Highlanders wear are rather more red than the King is wearing in that picture.

    The Atholl Highlanders wear a lovely marled red hose with simple ribbed cuff.
