    If you attached a photo, it's not showing up. (This is a fairly normal problem for new members, so perhaps a moderator could ensure the photo shows up.)

    If you are wearing a Wadlstrümpfe with a kilt outside of Germany, it might look odd to most observers. It will probably be considered less odd inside of Germany.

    On the other hand, several forum members have previously mentioned wearing trachtenstrümpfe (where the foot and calf are all one piece, not two) as an alternative to kilt hose. I believe the members who did so were either mainland Europeans or North Americans, and not from the British Isles.
