I was given a pr of J. Higgins diced hose last year. They seem to be reasonable quality for the price. The colours are a good match for my kilt. So far they have been worn once, to Burns Night. They will be worn again this year, for Burns Night. So far, no signs of "pilling".

Most of the time I wear an acrylic/wool blend solid colour kilt hose. 100% wool is just too warm for most of the year around here.
