low cost kilt hose

[chewse]

Gentlemen, if you'll allow me to continue this thread a little longer, I have a question about which hose material is best for the various seasons.

I'm new to kilt wearing. I also live in Texas where during the summer it’s unbearably hot and often times exceeds 100f for extended periods of time. The winters tend to be fairly comfortable with temperatures in the 75f to 85f range. I assume wool hose would be the most appropriate material for the winters but what about the summers? Cotton, a wool blend, something else? I prefer to wear boots with my kilt.

Thank you for your assistance.

Cotton is usually pretty nice for really hot temps. Granted it doesn't get to those temps often in NY so I'm in wool for the most part.

Nobody has mentioned Hamilton Dry Goods. I have several pairs of their cotton kilt hose and am very satisfied. I had tried Brewin but did not do well with my big feet and large calves.

Looks like I need to up the font on my posts. J/K BEEDEE.

edit: btw Hamilton Dry Goods has some pretty nice cotton hose.

Wool.

Your personal thermostat may run differently, particularly in how your calves feel in the heat. My feet are always happiest in wool, with very high quality technical/athletic blends a close second.
