    Looks like you have plenty of advice on places to buy.

    As to color, I'd stay away from white, but that's a personal matter. I only wear white with black tie (PC) or formal, and some people don't even like white in those situations. (Problem is, I ordered a custom knitted pair in white years ago, so I wear 'em when I deem them appropriate.)

    If I were starting over like you, I'd go for either Lovat Green or black or novy blue. Since you're wearing khaki shirts, I assume this is not a formal affair. (You can see my picture with the color combination:


    This is kind of the combination that the Highland Regiments wear, or at least used to wear. Who knows what they're up to since amalgamation.

    I like the green with the khaki, the only problem is the kilt has a large amount of green in it, and if it didnt match, I'm afraid it would look off. Same goes for blue.

    I myself will be in a PC, though I'm the only one. Maybe I should go with white and have them with cream?
