Quite right Scott, but it seems like some traditional garter knots may be more ornate than others, thus making them more appropriate for more formal functions versus for ordinary day wear. Is this a reasonable observation in your opinion, or is it an incorrect perception on my part? Curious to hear what Rex, Sandy, and Jock think as well.
