They are a thing of beauty though! Grin

Justturned50 · 29/12/2017 20:46

Just trying to think of an occasion when they'd be appropriate 😯

They make me shudder and I'm not sure why.

BumpowderSneezeonAndSnot · 29/12/2017 20:47

A friend of mine had multi coloured knee length socks that had toe bits like that.

What is it? I just get a blank tab when I click on the link on my phone.

🤮

Omg, I need eye bleach! What are they for??

You need a foot warning in the title.

And who has updated their translation which used to say something about slight colour difference?!

Note:1.Please allow 0.1-0.5inch difference due to manual measurement and slight chromatic aberration for different display setting

Are they for putting moisturiser on your feet after a shower then leaving it to soak in? (Like people do on their hands with special gloves?)

I've also been getting pop up ads for these on my social media in the past few days. Confused Confused

TossDaily · 29/12/2017 20:54

Fit like a glove though, don't they?

SugarPlumFerry · 29/12/2017 20:56

They look amazing!
I want some right now to wear inside my loafers. I hate having toe sweat. 😷

GaspingGekko · 29/12/2017 20:57

Oooh they're perfect for using with my running shoes.

Creepy as fuck. Why have they got individual toes? What practical reason is there for that? Imagine going round to your friend's house and they ask you to take your shoes off at the door. And you've got those on. You'd be very fortunate not to be thrown out into the street. In fact you'd be getting a bargain if that's all that happened to you because you really ought to be arrested. I don't want any part of this.

BumpowderSneezeonAndSnot · 29/12/2017 21:02

I would imagine you can wear these with open toe shoes

MumGoneMild · 29/12/2017 21:03

No.
Just no.
Forever no.

They're socks with toes!

Liara · 29/12/2017 21:10

What gaspinggekko said. How else can you wear socks with toed shoes?

RideOn · 29/12/2017 21:12

I can’t imagine they are comfortable in a shoe

AdoraBell · 29/12/2017 21:13

Aaargh. That’s given me the heebie geebies.

KitKat1985 · 29/12/2017 21:15

Damn you OP. These are all over my bloomin' facebook feed now. It's like the ruddy penguin bollards all over again.

Chienrouge · 29/12/2017 21:16

How else can you wear socks with toed shoes?

You don’t, is the answer to that.

Justabadwife · 29/12/2017 21:18

Ooh. Freaky.
I used to looove toe socks when i was a teenager. Now they just look weird 🤔😨

Liara · 29/12/2017 21:19

^How else can you wear socks with toed shoes?

You don’t, is the answer to that.^

But then your shoes would get all nasty and sweaty. Socks are a matter of hygiene, imo.

Bambamber · 29/12/2017 21:20

I have knee high socks with the individual toes like that. They used to be hugely popular and I still quite like them. My husband has however stolen all of mine and loves wearing them. They feel a little odd at first but are rather comfortable
