Over the Knees, and then some…
Or, should I say: Beauty at a price?
Since the Arlequins got the most comments on our preview post I decided to do them first. As I mentioned, Ozone makes high quality/high priced socks and these are no exception…
First your toes slip into the sturdy solid navy toe section, then the diamonds of color lead you to the navy heels and continue right up past the knees where the thin stripes start in all the same colors as the diamonds plus a few. A couple of inches further up is the 2 inch lightly ribbed solid plum cuff that keeps these up sooo nicely.
After hours of wear, up & down the stairs and all around to get socks & run errands these stayed above my knees.
Not as high up as they started, which was nearly mid thigh on me, but in such a way that I believe they will be (and stay) above the knees of even most of your longer legs and should easily stretch around 20 inches.
At $20 a pair I’m sure you understand how apprehensive I was to get these in, I only got them in violet to start. But after trying them out and seeing how pretty the colors are in person I’m definitely getting more. As of today I have ordered the rest of the colors they have available, we should have them in a few weeks. Til then we only have them in violet, but be warned, I don’t know how long these will be available to order, so if you want some you may not want to delay…

I’d kill for more colors of the knee socks of any varieties, both the normal and the new super knees are sooooooooooo comfy, and they’re more practical for summer than thigh highs and tights. I’d really like to see some black/white stripey otk/knee highs in black to go with this new skirt I bought..I know you have them from other brands but I’m spoiled to the super comfy dream stockings line =).

So sad that they ran out of brown =/. Ozone seems to do argyles really well..I got some brown/chocolate of this one wacky argyle print of theirs called ..I think it was “too much”, from their on sale/clearance section recently. And I’d looove to have the arlequins in brown (argyle AND stripes omg!) I guess I’ll have to settle for green and the pretty purple =).
