Kilt hose, sock liners, and foot comfort

I am with you on this. I wear liners with my wool kilt socks almost every time I put them on, as it helps my feet breath a bit more and keeps some of the itchies away when my feet begin to sweat, just the time the wool would typically start to get to me. Only problem is that I can only find liners in white, navy blue, or black, and some of my hose are not as thick in the body as I might like so the liners show through when stretched over my calves. My wife noticies it and it shows up in pictures. Obviously not a problem with dark or white/cream hose (unless I stupidly put on the opposite collor liners), but with the middle blue, red, green and yellow hose it it pretty obvious. Any suggestions anybody has would be greatly appreciated. This is becoming less of a problem as I am obtaining thicker hose over time but still a problem with some of my standard everyday wear hose.

I have several pairs of light grey polypro liner socks bought at a cycling store. They are shorter than dress length and a lighter, but not white, neutral color. I've worn them under dark kilt hose with no bleed.
