What do you reckon about these boots?

Hi guys,

Currently I only ever really wear my kilt for formal occasions and thus only really wear it with my ghillie brogues. I'm wanting to wear my kilt more often in day to day wear and was wondering your opinion on wearing my RM's with it. For all you non Australians (ie: most of you) this is what RM's look like.

Cheers
Danger

I think those would work, remember to scrunch your hose down with them and they should be fine. Why not try a picture with a kilt and them on then I am sure you will get comments.

Seeing as there is no-one around to take a photo I have tried to take these two myself. Have't really come out that well although it gives you abit of an idea. Still not sure on them. Maybe different coloured hose?

They look like the boots that officers in Scottish regiments wear with their trews.

Exactly what I was thinking...George boots, chukka boots, etc. Much better with trews, but that's just my opinion...

I think the boots look good. As mentioned previously, I would advise against mixing colors (brown sporran+black boots). Otherwise, I think you are on the right track.

I have seen that shirt somewhere before.......Hmmmmmm

With that tartan, and excellent choice of Rugby shirt I would say you could go for navy or purple hose. I have done it before with the Scottish Rugby Jersey and my x-marks, and Isle of Skye kilts, it will look great.

I forgot to say you could check here for different coloured hose, I have used them before and they get them to me in about a week. While they are not the most luxurious hose on the market they are good value for the money.

Cheers for that McMurdo. I will give the darker hose a go.

My Scotland jersey is my only option at the moment (one of my favorite jerseys). I'm too embarrassed to wear my wallabies jersey.
