    Terry, to be honest the hose in the pics don't look that bulky. I think the Lewis hose that Matt sells look better.

    Unfortunately the Accessories page on Steve's new website isn't up yet, but they are nice.

    Caddy One,
    do you also have the Scottish Lion's $22 Piper's Hose, and were yours also wool-blend rather than the advertised acrylic?

    Thanks Chef

    Yes, I like the Lewis hose & do plan to get a couple pairs (at least) in the future. Right now I need to purchase aprox 3 more pairs of hose, so I'll probably go with piper hose (found some wool blend ones for aprox $24 a pop), just as a stop-gap measure until I can afford the Lewis & Heritage hose (Steve over at Freedom Kilts sent me some pics of these).

    I recall last year at our local games seeing Joe McIntyre (of Clan MacIntyre -- duh! ) wearing a nice pair of oatmeal colored wool Aran cable hose that were really thick!
    I didn't get a chance to ask where he got them, but I'm sure it was on one of his many travels to Scotland.
