What in the hell is Mercury Rising?
Just another crazy name the folks at EG Smith gave their
ubercolorful space dyed cotton tights
So comfortable they’re like wearing nothing at all
Why go naked on the beach when your legs can be this warm & colorful?
I love these tights!!!|
The colors are gorgeous together.
Last week I was talking to Nancy at EG Smith, she is the rep and always such a dear. I asked her about the sizing of the tights and why the cotton otks don’t come in the same great range of colors that the tights & socklings do….
She said the Tights should easily fit up to 200 pounds, she even has larger folks who say they wear them, but due to differing proportions some people find the Bigger Better tights fit, well, better. Maybe someday they’ll give specific sizing on their olabels, but I wouldn’t hold my breath over it. There is a far better chance they wiull increase the cotton otk range first, she sees no reason not to have all the colors, including the space dyed in not only the otks, but the footless tights too, they might even add a bigger better footless! now that is good news!!!
5 soxy thoughts:
I told nancy all about that, but she says there are larger people who are fine with them and emphasized differing body proportions, perhaps you got a wonky pair? I haven’t gotten around to trying that pair on myself, sooo many socks and so little time you know…
eh, nothing ever fits me right, hardly. i still have a hard time believing that a 200 lb person shorter than myself would fit into them, but then again, my XL hips might be larger than theirs??? maybe they were wonky…check ‘em out when you’ve got a chance. make bsti try ‘em or something.
oooooo My Sister is soooo beautifull it just breaks My Heart.
Finally! Blogger has been being such a bitch since last night when I first tried to post this!

i know, i was trying to post elsewhere and had the same problems!!! anywho, i’m glad that they’re finally thinking of doing the footless tights in a larger size. I don’t know about that 200 lb size range, b/c I’m 5’10″ and 140, and the regular size footless tights were nooo good on me! yay for bigger tights!!!
