SOCKS

There's not a bit of doubt that your new Autumn soft demands an offset of sultable socks.

We have those hose... but we want you to have them. If you will come and inspect our new acquisitions in Autumn hosiery, we know that many of them will sell themselves without a prompting word from us.

We have a wide range of colours and designs to go with every sult in your wardrobe.

May we lay them before you?
