My feeling on that is that if you plan to wear the socks/hose pulled up wear the matching flashes.
Sounds good. I think that's a no then as Im planning to wear them with brown Nike Dunks (the look more like boots) and the socks look better sort of half up.
Clan tartan--the right choice. Flashes--yes. Enjoy! I am envious of all of you able to attend! Please make sure to post pics! Cheers!

Clan tartan, for sure. I always prefer solid garter ties to flashes...when the socks are pulled up. I always wear my hose that way, but I'm a bit of an old dog. If you're going to scrunch the hose, forget about the flashes.
I'm glad just about everyone agrees and has helped me make my mind up.
Give me a few mins and I'll post pics of both kilts. I always struggle to find my camera when I need it though!
From the list of tartans it seems as though USA kilts was the middleman for ScottishTartanStore... especially since Auld Lang Syne Grey is there too.
Is there a stamp on the buckles atall?
