I think this has been a post before.

Where do you get or how to you make those new foot sox/tights that are so popular for guards these days? You know the ones that are likc a sock with the toe and heel cut out...........

I don't think they are professionally manufactured, but if anyone has ideas of good and bad materials to use, etc...I would be interested in knowing.

It's rather quite simple.

Just purchase a pair of good socks. Women's socks with Lycra in the material seems to work better cause they don't stretch out as much.

But just cut the toes off and simply make a hole where the heel is and stretch it out to your liking.
One mo again.

Do you mean like stirrup tights like these http://www.discountdance.com/frame_set. ... TI_p1.html (click on the stirrup tights link on the left)? Dancewear stores/websites sell them.

Okay so I know what ur going through. I was looking everywhere for them as well... What they are really for is wearing them with sandals, which now is not the season for that, so they are hard to find through my experience. But my friend bought me some for X-mas, they are wonderful! I Love them. Anywho he said that he got them from Macy*s. So yeah I hope I have been some help. I asked some people where they got them from and most said from Target, but I couldn’t find them... hopefully you can! :D
