Re: Thoughts on hose color etc.
If you take a look at this thread Jamie was wearing a Black Watch kilt for it and wore a few different colours for hose, it might give you some ideas:

I would say Yellow, Lovat Blue or Lovat Green, or Claret would work well.

Re: Thoughts on hose color etc.
I think that most folks would do best to own five pairs of hose:
Lovat blue
Lovat green
Bottle green
Claret/ dark red
Argyle or diced hose for formal wear
I have several pairs of flashes/garters in assorted colors, but I tend to wear red most of the time.
Cordially,
David

Good point. The hose I do have that I wear the most are on the list. The hose I don't wear often, aren't.
Likewise with flashes, I have read over and over that if i have one pair bright red and one pair bright blue, I have all the flashes I need.
Thansk David.

Same here. I purchased flashes and garter ties in many different colours from House of Cheviot and Lochcarron, however, I almost always grab the colour red.
