Dressed for Kirkin' service
This is I in my Carolina tartan kilt after our inaugural Kirkin' service at First Presbyterian Church, Lumberton, North Carolina.

So jealous of those kilt hose. Most of what you see on the forum here are the not-quite-them version from Almost Unwearoutable (which are still very nice hose).

Very, very sharp-looking ideed!! Everything tones together extremely well; and the hose. . .Wowsers!

Almost identical. It's really quite subtle. The AUW hose have five layers of dicing and these have six. I have it on good authority (the OP is my twin brother), that these were made by the lady who makes the kilt hose for HRH the Duke of Rothesay.

Thanks for that; I wondered if it was an issue on the amount of dicing.

A fine turnout for sure. I used to hang around Lumberton back in the late 60s. Was a dangerous place back then...
