There was a thread at one time called something like "Show us your hose" and this post would belong there if I could find it.
Most of these things are Not Kilt Hose but are worn as such anyway.
These are knee-length dress socks that I don't intend to wear with a kilt anymore. I wore them once to a funeral with a kilt because I had few other options. It worked but actual black kilt hose are on my list of future purchases.
Sock Dreams classic cotton slouch socks. Not kilt hose (turnover isn't great) but they don't look atrocious, either.
Sock Dreams Diamond Rib Knee Socks. It's like "I Can't Believe It's Not Kilt Hose". The only thing that makes these not kilt hose is the turnover.
The only House of Cheviot hose I own (more on order): Lewis in Navy
A pair of Bavarian Trachtenmode socks I got at a rummage sale held by a local German theater troupe
White nylon hose that came with the cheap acrylic kilt I bought a while ago and don't wear anymore.
