I usually forgo the high kilt hose in summer and wear Smartwool socks scrunched down. Sometimes I leave the belt off as well. IMO, those two accessories are the biggest culprits to being over heated in a kilt. I've found that the kilt itself is not the cause of feeling too hot in the summer.

I saw this mentioned before, but if you do want the sock look. Go to your athlectic store and get soccer socks. They are thinner yet not to thin.

In the summer I stick to my Sport Kilts, lighter kilt hose & plain low-cut shoes.

For summer wear I usually don a band t-shirt, regular black socks, and Adidas. It's comfortable, and it has a bit of a football hooligan look to it.

just wear a lighter weight kilt and forget the high socks.

I wear the kilt with hose pulled and gartered in 90+F temps. But, you can go without the shin and foot coverings if you want.

100o here! Daytime I wear T-Shirt, Stillwater Thrifty or basic Sportkilt, socks usually up but sometimes scrunched. shoes, but never boots. No sporran around the house, but need it to carry stuff if i go out. No sgian Dhu, or flashes.
Night time I might do boots - depends where I'm going. If casual, then boots, more formal, shoes; (I never wear Ghillies etc. too costumey) Flashes etc. if in the mood.

I usually wear cotton kilts, lightweight boots and soccer or boot socks scrunched down in summer. If you look at the casual photos you'll find members in sandals, and the like.
Best regards,
