    Wink kilt socks

    A lot of kilt 'advice' is based on tradition and in the olden days Highlanders hose (not the modern socks we wear today) only came half way up their calf. I say it's all a matter of personal taste. I prefer to wear mine just under the kneecap, with the bottom of the kilt just on the top of the kneecap. Some 'traditionalists' say that the bottom of the kilt should cut through the middle of the knee but I think this is too long and looks ridiculous, especially when the socks are worn lower on the calf. Just wear them where you're comfortable with them - but always wear flashes with them !
