    The Duke's Hose

    In the interests of completeness, and in response to those who have enquired as to where one might obtain their own version of the Duke's most excellent hose, I believe the source of at least some of his hose is Wendy Keith Designs http://www.wendykeithdesigns.co.uk/tradition-c4.html

    That company holds a Royal Warrant from the Duke as regards the supply of hose, and several of the posted photos of the Duke appear to feature them. By posting this, I mean no disrespect to Matt Newsome, from whom I have just ordered hose, or the almostunwearoutable outfit, or any others suggested--I'm sure they can all fulfill your requirements. Cheers!

    Machine knit, stock colors & sizes (but less expensive if the colors work for you)...
