Country Socks with.........bowling shoes

[Nathan]

Bold look. Very funky but I agree, you may look like you left the bowling alley and forgot to change back into your own shoes.

My bigger concern is how high your hose go. Country socks are often meant to be double folded. Yours are going right up to the bottom of your knee cap. I think a little lower (say three fingers) might be preferable.

Regarding tradition/day wear etc... I wouldn't wear a jacket and tie to a DJ gig, so I can't blame you for not doing it. I wear the traditional day wear at times when I would be smartly dressed were I not kilted. I think the kilt, the hose, and the sporran are the really traditional bits, after that, it depends who you are and what you're doing.

I wouldn't wear a saxon sports coat with my kilt, but I'd wear a short leather jacket in a heart beat if it suited the occasion.
