    Shepherd Kilt Hose?

    Is there anybody who makes shepherd kilt hose? New House Highland isn't taking any orders for this item right now.

    Perhaps you could help me? Just what do you mean by "shepherd kilt hose"? Do you have any pictures? Thank you.

    Jock,

    They are a Brown and natural houndstooth type of knit hose.

    Similar to what way back when (18th century) might have been a pair of cut cloth bag hose made from a shepards cloak.

    No help, only comments.
    I had to look these up after reading that description. A rather large cuff, but WOW, great design.

    I am obliged to you sir, thank you. Whilst I don't recall anyone in Scotland wearing that style of hose, I think Matt Newsome certainly used to wear hose like that.
