style question - tartan flashes, solid flashes or no flashes?

[A Hay]

My personal preference is to wear kilt hose pulled up with solid color flashes.
But with my long thin shins I don't think I would look good in pushed down hose. Too much skin between the tops of shoes/boots and bottom of kilt.

If I'm just around the house I might leave off the flashes, and the sporran. I'd never go out without the sporran however.

Now flashes are pretty simple. Any of you guys make your own? I would think it would be super easy...

Whenever I wear hose pulled up, I wear flashes. I have some tartan ones, but I find I wear the solid colours much more often. It's just a matter of what you prefer.
