I used to have a pair of these a long time ago. I didnt know they still had them around. Do you remember these? Did you have a pair? What did they look like? I had rainbow striped ones and called them my doctor suess socks. LOL. Here is a picture for those of you who dont know what they are. They come in all colors and patterns. I was thinking of getting some for my kids. I think they would get a kick out of it.

I had toe socks when I was a kid. Last year I bought both my daughters toe socks for Christmas. They both loved them. Do you remember leg warmers? I wonder if they still make them.

I used to have a couple of pairs when I was in grade school. One of the pairs was like the rainbow ones in your picture. The other pair was white with multi colored toes. I actually saw some in the store not too long ago. But when I picked them up to buy them, my daughter told me I was a "freak". So they stayed on the shelf. I plan on getting some for Christmas so I can wear them when the family gets together so I can embarrass the heck out of my daughter as payback for what she said. Teeheehee!

I've told them that, but all I get is a shoulder shrug and a snicker or two. LOL And hey....that's why your mommy is one of my best friends. We're too much alike NOT to be best friends!

Back in college my brother went to Japan. He got me some white toe socks. He said that's what Japanese laborers wear. It's supposed to prevent feet from getting smelly. And I noticed it was effective indeed!

I have never heard that. I guess it helps the smell because the toes arnt together and able to collect sweat.

I would have never thought that the toe socks could be used as an odor deterrent! Thanks for the info, I don't suffer from smelly feet unless I wear my tennis shoes without socks. I am a crazy soc person so it rarely occurs. :-)

I had some a long time ago, too. They were also the rainbow ones. Although I'm not sure of that. It's been a long time. I didn't like them. But, I can't stand anything between my toes. So, it probably wasn't a good idea to get them in the first place. But, they were in style in the 70's, like they are now.

Hi,there! Well,I don't have a pair of toe socks but I do often wanna have one pair like that. When I first saw them,I found they had so funny looking. I think they're pretty cute and they're somehow popular these days. I hope I can find one pair that I like when I go shopping one day. Since you've got some pairs,I'd like to know how do you feel when you wear them? Are they comfortable? Do you think they're good for the toes?

They take some time to get used to wearing. Once your used to them though there very comfy! I think there good for your toes. Each one is covered and dosent get cold.

Okay so I am busted! I currently own three pairs of these silly socks. I have rainbow-striped, blue-striped and a pastel rainbow striped pairs of toe socks. My 15 year old daugher owns a pair of "rainbows" herself. She doesn't wear them often because they are "loud" but she likes the warmth they provide to her toes, individually...lol

I don't have any ut I want some! I have to wait until they go on sale though. The only store I've found them in wants $5 a pair...that's a bit much for one pair of socks with my budget.

I used to have several pairs when I was a teenager. The last time I had a pair was when my son was about 3 years old and he wanted me to get some that were green with frogs on the toes. I wore those things almost every day. But they made my kid happy. I was thinking of getting him a pair for Christmas. He would just love them.

I don't have such kind of socks. I have seen it, but I haven't bought it. Perhaps I think it's not suitable for me to wear:)

I had toe socks, rainbow ones, when I was a preteen and loved them. About three months ago, my sister and I were out shopping at a dollar store and I found them again! Now I have four pairs- blue, black, rainbow, and burgundy! They are the best!! And I too, do remember leg warmers-would love to find them out in the dollar store too! Those are great in the winter time!

We all had toe socks when we were kids. I have a pair that I have had for a few years now. My granddaughter(5) & I during the winter, sit on the couch with our rainbow colored toe socks, eat popcorn, & watch disney movies. I will be getting my other granddaughter a pair this year so she(2) can join us.

Oh My Goodness! I haven't thought about toe socks in years. When I was about 7 or 8, my Mom bought me some really cute toe socks...they looked like feet. They even had painted toe nails on the toes! I need some to get me a pair and think back about childhood.

Oh, I remember these toe socks. I used to have them a long time ago. I had a couple of them, they were gifted for me by a dear friend for Christmas. I don't know where they are now. I lost them because when I got married I left most of my stuff where I used to live, and my nieces and nephews took my bedroom now, and most of my things are gone. I think, I can still use them now if I have them because I sometimes wear socks to sleep, I get cold feet sometimes and I don't like it because I keep waking up from having cold feet.

LOL I sure do :):):) I Love them. I always have at least one pair of those. The funy thing is that when my daughter was back home for a while she came back with a few more pairs LOL I know that kids tend to like them more than adults but I guess I am a kid at heart because I really like them :)

I have toe socks too, actually they are back in fashion and very popular for teenager and kids. I got one like those maybe two years ago from my crazy friend. they look pretty similar like yours, the rainbow striped one. when I first got them I love them and cannot wait to have them on. But I cannot really wear them , since the toe is pretty big and I feel like the blood is not going to my toe. I still have them somewhere but don't wear them anymore.
