My avatar is Modern Boyd, much red and green, with navy blue, livery colours are azure on argent. Suggestions on the best look for diced hose...anyone, please?

    I know, red and green would be so obvious and probably look great! I was just worried about looking to much like a overly tall Christmas elf. Maybe I shoud just go with it!

    Thanks for your input, very appreciated!
