flashes color question

[neo71665]

What color (solid) flashes do ya'll suggest for my baird modern kilt? I was thinking of a nice dark green that matches the green in the kilt. I can't find a real good pic of the tartan on the net, most of them make the colors look lighter than they really are. This is pretty close though.

Dark green, navy blue or black flashes will look good with your tartan. The color of your kilt hose may very well be the determining factor in your final selection. You have several kilt hose options dark green, navy blue, cream or oatmeal.

Might I suggest bringing out the most limited colour in the tartan? I'm not sure what it is called but it looks purpleish or crimson like.

So, if its not too late just ask the kiltmaker to make up a pair of flashes from the tartan.

Best way to obtain flashes is to have them made up with the kilt, from the same tartan.

Good idea, Ron!

I have found that my solid black flashes from sportkilt have served well with every kilt I've worn. They don't draw a crazy amount of attention and they function well.

... but they are the only flashes I've had, so let's hear what the others have to say ... ;)

It is tough to match colors after the fact. roan is correct that solid black will go with any kilt. Just don't get shiny ribbon, that would look bad.

Modern green or modern blue flashes would both go well with you kilt.

I have both now, and wear the green more just cause its my favorite color.
