Well, I don't care for them, and there are so many other color choices, that I'll usually advise against white hose. At the end of the day, white, or ecru/off-white as it were, are just colors! If you like the way they look with your outfit, fine, but I would still politely suggest trying some other color choices too.

On the "jacobite" shirts... This is a sort of a confusing topic! Many "traditional" kilt wearers here would likely take issue with you calling yourself "very much the "traditional" kilt wearer" and them saying you wear those shirts!

Most folks here think of the jacobite shirts as a costume look, that should not be worn outside the Renaissance faire. I tend to agree, I have some, but they only come out at faire. But I often see photos of that style being worn at games, weddings, and various 'Highland' events in Scotland.

Anyway , welcome to the forum!
