Country Socks with.........bowling shoes

[t_challa]

Yes, you read the title correctly. I know there a lot of members on this forum who lean heavily towards the traditional mode when wearing kilts. And they wear it well. Awesome in fact. However, while I salute that look and those who wear it, it is definitely not me. I lean much more towards a more modern look. I will wear a sporran (cos where else am I gonna but my keys, wallet and phone) and I will wear hose (cos hose look cool). However, as a (fairly) young-ish person, I don't have any formal events to go so have no need for the formal look or even "official" daywear look; I wear my kilt with pride as an alternative to following current fashion trends.

With that in mind, I have found that country (hunting/shooting) socks are much more in keeping with my style when kilted up; they especially look good when scrunched down into my boots (photos to follow after I DJ this weekend).

Anyway, I was thinking that I might, at some point, want to wear the socks pulled up and was looking at my shoes to see which ones would go best with them, when my eyes settled onto my bowling shoes. (In keeping with my style of wearing things a bit alternative, I should point out that I never wear them to go bowling. They are purely VERY comfortable footwear that are a bit different).

I know this look may not be for everyone, but wanted to share it with you guys anyway
