Borrowed Toes
obviously NOT my legs or feet lol!
Why my dad likes Boys socks
-they’re light weight
-feet stay cool even in shoes that make feet deathly burning hot
-non-irritating toe seams
-not too tight at the top/on the leg
-at the limit of the size Large, but likes a snug fit (wears size 11 1/2 shoes)
-fun colours for old dad
Dad’s so picky about socks he tells people not to buy him any as gifts because he needs to inspect them first lol… but I bought him a pair of these and he really liked them.
he says he’d like some blue ones *hint hint* lol

Cute post. Love to see families sharing the sock love! I was so happy when my grandma was excited about the slouch socks I got her for Christmas. And my sister yelled at me for not getting her any sock cuz she needs some even though she never got around to telling me what kinds she liked.

I do believe they’re in men’s sizes, if they fit dad’s feet they must be lol

Are the boy socks sized in Men’s sizes? The inklined I have are impossibly small and small footed for me. Maybe I’d do better with the boy socks? If that is the case… I’d jump up and down over some thigh high boy sockies :O)

I vote thigh-high lengths!!!!! You’ve brought in tons of anklets and knee highs lately & I’ve been waiting for longer lengths….. I love that lots is getting restocked, whoo! & The orkney angora OTK are the most fabulous socks EVERS!!!!!!! I love my pair.

I’m sorta working on a men’s section (in between how many other things???). Pink would be cute, that blue is delft and we just might bring in a longer version, but you know, sooo many socks, sooo little time! We just got a sample fro another really cool pattern and were contemplating potential lengths, so maybe that one will be the knee high…

Any other of this style but longer that fit men? What about the kneehi’s or longer?

the first time I bought him a pair was in the summer, and then another pair for his b-day, then 3 pair for xmas. sadly he can’t wear them often becuase his running shoes chew up socks and spit them out :P so he’s gotta get a new pair of shoes.
