This pair of hose were Josh's suggestion. He thougt a pair of custom castellated to Argyle hose would look amazing with my Carolina tartan kilt and plaid. I thought that was a splendid idea!





I am generally very pleased with these, as well. I don't think the colors quite match the tartan as exactly as my diced hose seem to match my MacQuarrie kilt. The red, I think, is a tad bright, and the blue is a bit on the light side. The green is spot on. But I'm not terribly picky, so long as the outfit as a whole looks good together, and I belive this does.

This is my first pair of castellated top hose. I will have to get a set of longer garter ties so that I can tie a more decorative knot that these hose require. (I'm just wearing a pair of standard length ones in this photo, tied as best I could). I may get my wife to knit me a set, in fact.

By the way, in keeping with the theme, the shoes I am wearing were also traded for (thanks, DW!), and the hair sporran was acquired for a steal second-hand.
