jdot, a member of this board, turned me on to The Scottish Trading Co. The owner, Matt, was very helpful during the entire process answering my many questions. Thank you all for your opinions on the hose and the kind words about the kilt.

Black, or Green,I don't think cream is a good choice.

**McMurdo** · 18th June 09, 09:41 PM

Bottle Green would be my first choice, I'd say a Navy Blue would work as well.

**O'neal** · 18th June 09, 10:28 PM

Bottle green in my opinion

**Joseph McLaren** · 18th June 09, 10:58 PM

bottle green, or even a pale blue if you can match the relevant stripe. Nice kilt, congratulations!

Green on the hose & you might want to wear the Kilt a bit higher

The problem I'm having is that I ordered the kilt and then lost weight. I was able to get the kilt size reduced some, but i continued to lose weight. I have it on the tightest notch on the straps but it still slides down. As I lose some more weight, I'll return it to Matt, he said he could take it up more. I have tried to keep it higher though.

For a while you can tighten the belt, works unless you are wearing a PC. For hose I would go with.........

Pink

JK Blue or green would work welll

i like the kilt. looks good.

as regards the colour of the hose; what colour of jacket do you wear with it? the hose should always match the colour of the jacket/jumper you're wearing. if you only wear a shirt with it then match them to the shirt (so in the pic the colour is right).
