Dragons have arrived
It isn’t often I manage to fulfill a special request in little more than a week.
So these dragons must be part magic because it happened this time, with one small fault: the actual request was for knee high dragons and these are merely crew socks, high on the ankles but not quite to the knees. In their defense, they come in two sizes, “men’s” and “women’s” …I found them to be so very stretchy & soft that I think they will be very accommodating to your feet of all sizes, though they may be loose on smaller feets below women’s size 7.5. We put them on and trekked through our favorite forest of bamboo safely and silently with our little herd of new dragons following our every step.
…maybe someday we will have a magic sock machine that we can create anything we want on, including dragon knee highs.

Doesn’t Tabbisocks make a dragon OTK? If they do, you should stock them. Bet they’d sell out in record time.

Yes, I don’t know if they are still available, but I am going to try for them with our next order ~=D

PS Be sure to check out the new vertically inklined knee highs in spring colors! We’ll review those soon…

Hey, I know you’ve prolly answered this question before, but what shoes are those? they look awesome, specially with cool socks like these

Thanks! They are Palladiums, don’t know the style name though.

I’ve wanted those shoes/similar shoes for a long time too.
Love the dragons ;)

yes, that looks like them! Shelleopard sent them to us a few years back.
I don’t own a pair of Palladiums that i don’t like.

Ohh, I love the colors of the vertically inclined knee highs! I wish the otk version came in that pretty light blue, but I’m still considering the knee high.. I’m trying to wait for the long argyles from that table picture a few weeks ago.

Oooh, we have almost all the images for the long argyles, I’ll be editing away on my “weekend” and should have them live by Sunday at the latest.
3/15… Done!!!

Wow@ the clocked OTKs. Gorgeous color combos and they look satisfyingly long on all of your models. Simply delicious!
Niq, do you think you’ll run out of them quickly? I have to wait until I get paid at end of the month…

I think we’ll be okay, I am going to try ordering more just to be sure, what color(s) do you crave the most?

Personally, I like the Cayenne and the Olive, but I expect that the Black would be one of the first to run out, as usual =). You know, when I look at items that come in many color combos I sometimes find one that makes me worry (probably incorrectly too) that you’ll end up stuck with it for a while… But with these OTKs I feel like everyone will love every single one of the combos. So gorgeous.
P.S. How hilarious is it that I love your business so much that I get all worried that you could get an item that doesn’t sell so well and you guys will lose money on it. Silly me! There are passengers for every train, but I worry still =).

So far grey & denim are most popular. Olive & grey are my fav’s from the clocked assortment. I just love the way the clocking runs down the sides of the feet, soooo cute ~=D

Me too! It’s enough to attract some attention yet subtle enough to wear to work…

I just received the Dragon crews yesterday (men’s, as the women’s were sold out at the timeIi ordered). I love them, but one note–the amount of embroidery on them means they lack some stretch around the circumference, so they don’t go up very nicely around my ample calves. (Specifically, they pull around the eye stitching.) The design is nicely done and the colours are nice and vibrant (especially against the black!), but my dragons look a little deflated when they’re bunched around my ankles… I do have freakishly big calves so this probably won’t be a problem for most, just a note.
