Basic black socks

December 26, 2011 12:13 PM

Sock filter: I’m looking for cheap black knee-length cotton athletic socks – like these, except in black. I found them two years ago, but not since then. I’ve looked at Kmart, Target and Walmart and online. I live in Albuquerque.

You could try looking in SockDreams.

Probably a silly question, but have you tried Amazon?

How about eBay?

Response by poster: Thanks.

I did try Amazon. The closest thing I found is $5 per pair. I might have to get those.

But I'd like to get five to 20 pairs and pay no more than $2 each.

Best answer: You're having a hard time finding these because they're out of style but the non-stylish person can purchase them here or here.

Response by poster: Yes! Thanks you!

I'm all about being non-stylish -- making my own style. :)

I just hope you're not planning to wearing them with sandals. :-P

Response by poster: No! I'm not that bad. :)

Mainly they're for black boots. But definitely only in the winter, not in sandal weather.
