Need help with hose color choice for a solid brown kilt

[KSmedic]

I am equally new to the kilt, so take my reply with a large grain of salt. One of the articles I've read about proper attire said that the easiest thing to do when starting out is to consider your kilt on equal footing with a pair of trousers in the same color. If the hose you pick are a color you'd wear with a pair of brown trousers, go ahead and wear them. Now, having said that, I personally would stick with the earth tones. (I tend towards those colors anyway, so it's not a radical change.) I have a tan 5.11 kilt that I normally wear hiking boots with, and have worn white, tan, and OD green socks, depending on what's clean and easily accessible in the drawer. I have not worn "traditional" kilt hose with it. It's a non-traditional kilt, so I kinda felt that the rules don't really apply. treat the Utilikilt the same way. Wear what you want. That's the whole point of wearing a kilt anyway, isn't it?
