    Could somebody do me a favor?

    I want to see how the WPG khaki kilt hose look with the SWK Lamont heavyweight. If anybody owns these two items, could they please post a photo of them together? Thank you so much.

    I don't own either. But, here's a picture of McNulty wearing both (I knew the two together sounded familiar.)

    Greg,

    Here is another couple of photos








    I don't wear this combo anymore. In all honesty the greenish tones in the khaki just don't work with the browns and tans of the SWK Lamnont variant.

    I think that oatmeal colored hose are a better option like these (with hose toppers from Big Mikey)





    The brown Lewis hose that Ted Crocker just got for his SWK Lamont variant outfit look like another great option (though more expensive)

    His thread can be found here

    I was told, I can't see for myself, that the brown Lewis hose have a close color to one of the brown colors of the SWK, Half Lamont. I figure that you saw my thread... you posted in it, beloitpiper. Hope you are able to get the Lewis hose, they're great.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    Wow, that was fast. Thanks guys!

    Ted, the Lewis hose are enticing. I've been considering those, but the only problem is choosing only one!

    Jamie, where did you get those oatmeal hose from?

    Oh, Panache linked to the hose review, good and thanks.

    Hope you find what you want and need, beloitpiper, then buy a pair or two of Lewis hose.
    Good luck.

    $20 is not bad for good quality kilt hose. They aren't in the same league as the Lewis hose, but I have a lot of pairs and they seem to hold up well.

    Cheers

    I've got a pair of the oatmeal hose Rocky carries... they really are great for 20 bucks.

    The khaki hose from Hamilton Dry Goods area good buy at $8 and a good color for the SWK Lamont. If you want I can take a pic and post it. Just the hose lying on the kilt, though.

    That would be great, thanks Turpin.

    Anybody else have good hose recommendations for the SWK Lamont?
