Long socks help

7 replies

I need some over-knee socks to wear with knee boots (as in I'd like them to be long enough to be visible with knee boots). Ideally a chunky or ribbed knit. Am open to patterns like Fair Isle as well as solid colours. I'm a size 42/8, so some women's 'one-size' socks don't fit me, so I'm up for men's ones too.
I have some Elle socks that fit this bill, bought ages ago, but can't find them for sale any more.
Budget is not that high –I've seen some nice ones for £25 etc but that's a bit beyond me as I'd like several pairs.
TIA.

Tried that before and unfortunately they tend to ruck up when I put my boots on!

How about the ones that have a little cut out bit for the heel - stirrup leg warmers? They might work? I'm thinking that way the size wouldn't be an issue.

Not suggesting the ones in that link are going to blow you away! Grin

Yes, maybe. Still think it might be an issue though...

What about these? amzn.to/3s6QzDP

Thank you; I looked at those but the reviews put me off a bit.
