Hose and Shoes

[adempsey10]

I'm wondering what everyone wears for shoes and hose, if any hose at all. I'm trying to figure out what kind of shoes look good with hose for a casual setting; Hiking boots, runners, converse, Docs or anything else along those lines. Do you skip out on the hose when not wearing dress shoes or brogues? Right now I dont have any hose and I'm not sure if I like them but many here have said, along with my wife, that I should try them out. Any suggestions or ideas are welcome. If you are willing to share pictures as examples, even better.

Thanks,
Alan

I like to hose simple to cover the damage to my legs and I've grown very comfortable in them all the time.

I usually wear boots or just brown oxfords(Walmart $20.00). I do have a pair of Ghillie Brogues, my wife really likes them but I don't wear them too often.

I like the Red Wing Brogue Rangers, casual, yet classy.

In the summer for casual stuff, I wear my KEEN sandals with no hose/socks. In the winter, or for formal stuff, I wear hose and lace-up shoes.

Docs and Sketchers boots most of the time. Always with hose. Usually up with garter ties. Nice dress shoes (Oxford type often) for nicer occasions. Never Ghillie Brogues. I don't like then so I don't own them.

Give hose a try. They will really step up your kilt wardrobe a lot. Your kilts will thank you, mate.
