    Warrior Tartan Kilt

    My son wants a Warrior tartan kilt from USA Kilts (the order will be in as soon as his girlfriend measures him up, Rocky). What say the rabble on the best color hose and flashes to set it off smartly?

    I've never seen the Warrior tartan in person, so to speak, but I've been told it looks somewhat different than the pictures, hence the question.

    Had a Warrior tartan kilt in USA Kilts Casual. Seldom wore it with hose. Couple times I did and got pics...here's with purple kilt hose.



    Can't really tell what color these hose were...think it was a gray to match the sweater.



    Main thing is to just play around and see what works. Think with the Warrior you have the purple and white and maybe some black (??). Enjoy the process.

    Thanks. Both of those look nice. The only pics I could find online had the wearers in white or black hose, which looked kind of bland.

    If it were me, I'd do Charcoal hose with it OR hose to match my top.

    I have "purple" kilt in the "Glencoe" tartan. I find grey/charcoal works well. Lovatt or forest green also works well.

    Thanks both. Sonʻs girlfriend suggested red hose with navy flashes, Iʻll pass along all the suggestions and let him choose.
