One year ago today….

I joined Niqkita as a sock model here at Sock Dreams (then Fetishize Me) with my first post, the purple or, more accurately, denim-colored longer socks (no longer available):


Since then, I’d like to think that I’ve learned a little bit about both the sock trade and my camera, but my love for Cyprus longsocks remains the same. After a year, these socks are still lovely and comfy. They still go all the way up over my 21.5″ thighs and stay there with the help of plain ol’ white sock garters! However, at the end of a long day, I prefer to just let them fall down, since they don’t fall past OTK length on me:

If you love thick, cushy socks, the Cyprus thick and baggy longsocks are for you. They make excellent bootsocks for those of us with knee-high boots! Their colors are excellent for layering; the longer styles are typically slightly thinner than the shorter and therefore have more give and breatheability. As compared to the M stockings, they’re more elasticky and, in my opinion, hug your legs slightly better. They all fit my size 12s just fine and make for excellent unisex socks, too!

Well, I’ve had a great first year here, with plenty of garters made and lots of socks and stockings tried! I can’t wait to see what the future has to bring, and my many thanks to Niqkita for trusting in a silly leopard grrl to be her first feedback monkey! ;)

    I had considered getting I think the ribbed ones in the past but never did. I’m sure kicking myself now. :(

    Hmmm, I have no idea why the link to the thick & baggies was wonky, when I went to the page through the site it was fine, so I fixed the link and all is well now ~:)

    Do you still have anything in that Denim color? It’s beautiful. I have to start wearing my M40’s and such under jeans instead of just with skirts cuz it’s awful blistery outside lately.
