So- here's the deal. I ordered 2 new pairs of kilt hose from Matt, one pair of standard Lewis Rich in wine red, and one pair of the ones with the nifty patterned tops. Thanks to my adult ADD, I didn't notice the the fancy-topped ones would take 6-8 weeks for delivery. So... I emailed Matt and asked if I could pay separate shipping to get my red hose before St. Patrick's Day, since I'm marching in the parade and wanted them to wear with my Albannach tartan kilt. And Matt sent them to me, with no extra shipping. He got them to me yesterday, as a matter of fact. So SSDD- just another story of Matt's exceptional customer service! Thanks a lot, Matt!!
