About four years ago I wanted some retro pom-pom socks like I had when I was a kid.  I searched and searched and finally ordered some only to be hugely disappointed.  They stuck up higher than my shoes and they did not look nice at all.  I resorted to sewing on craft store pom-poms but those weren't quite right either.  After much consideration my husband and I decided to get them manufactured to the exact specifications I wanted.  I absolutely LOVE them and I hope you do to!
