    With the greatest of respect, if you want wear white hose then carry on, there will be no witch hunt or bolt of lightning to strike you down. If you get taken to task by wearing white hose just say “Jock Scot from near Fort William said I could!”

    Speaking truthfully, I find white hose jar my eye. Some Other colours do not catch my eye either, such as black, but none of them, including white , is a hanging offence if one chooses to wear that colour.

    On the other hand various shades of reds and greens do catch my eye regularly. Added to those, yellow and blue are also worn by me occasionally if the mood and,or, the occasion dictates.

    I think that many reading this will pretty much agree with this, but, the colours of one’s tartan may, in fact will, influence an individuals choice. But for many and various reasons, including the hire company aspect, does influence choice.

    Let’s be honest here, if one has paid a fair amount of loot in having a bespoke kilt and bespoke jacket( take your choice of any jacket) would you want to look like a beginner wearing attire from a hire shop? I will let you answer that!

    For me , no I don’t. At a guess. If others are being honest nor do they, and that is the solid influence of why white hose are not popular and to be fair, there are really far better choices than white to be had.
