    JSF, I believe you are right about made for a woman, but I think most hose can be cuffed easily enough. Much depends on the length of one's shanks, I expect, and the length of one's foot. Unstretched, the wool OTC argyles from this second seller (in a size medium) are 17 inches, heel to top. The last two inches are solid- there is no argyle cuff. I would be willing to sell out my sock integrity for the $75 or so in savings, assuming the color worked. I am curious as to your opinion of the off white with red raker stitch I mention above.
    Thanks MacLL
    Some take the high road and some take the low road. Who's in the gutter? MacLowlife

    I can't say that I like them. They just don't look like kilt socks to me. They are too fine, not wooly enough...and they are pretty darned white.
