Kilt Hose for Shaw Modern

[jbaker42j]

What do you think is the best color of kilt hose to pair with a Shaw Modern Kilt?

Pictures always help.

[jbaker42j]

Yes they do, thank you very much!

[St. Amish]

You're quite welcome.

I am very fond of black hose. My tank is primarily green (Stewart hunting), and the black hose look really nice with it for dress or casual wear. Some folks cringe at black hose for dressed down occasions, but it's really up to you.

Navy would also look nice.

Well, I wouldn't go with white. After that there are many choices: various shades of blue and green; red; fawn. Orange probably wouldn't work.

I'd get navy, dark gray, lovat green to start. Think about some tartan/argyle hose for special occasions. Look at the shirts you like to wear with the kilt and get complementary colors in the socks.

I wear cream-colored hose (and blue flashes) with my Shaw tartan because I could only afford one pair when I bought the kilt, and cream seemed like a good multi-occasion color. However, the easiest way to pick an actual color is to determine the dominant colors of the tartan. In our case, the blue and green are dominant, so either would be a good choice. I'm about to have a pair of blue, and will probably find some red flashes to go with them.

I like the opposite approach: pick the least-represented color in the tartan. In Shaw, that's red, and then you could wear flashes in one of the dominant colors. If you wanted tartan hose, I'd think red and green with navy stripes would look really nice.

That one is hard to beat. Add red flashes and you're there.
