Default Extra Large Poodle Socks

Why cant some companises that make Irish Dance Accesories, make poodle Socks for peole with Size 8 feet or over, I am sick and tired of having knee length poodle socks go no where near my knee. I asked one Very well known maker of Irish Dance Shoes and Supplies, if in thet intended on making Poodle Socks for those of us with larger feet, and they said that at the present moment there is no need for extra large poodle socks at the present time. Who here agrees that extra large poodle socks should be available to those who need them?

I agree!Some People have some bigger People then others and sooo I think they should make Socks for them...But the Person is right...Their isn't that many People with BIG Feet..They are trying to make more of the Socks that People use and they are afraid if they make a bigger kind rarely anybody would buy it...But I am a size 9 1/2 size 10 in the U.S. and I have to say the LARGE is perfect for me..But I am oh so sorry that you are having this Problem and I do hope that they make a bigger size for the people with bigger feet

i know i would love it if some irish dance suppliers would think of dancers with bigger feet. I kow Rutherford do them in an extra large, but atm i cant justify spending a heap of cash on a few pairs, then having to replace them later on again.

the other prolem is i am also 5ft10ins tall and being tall doesn't really help when your knee length ones look more like championship length ones lol

I'm sure this isn't very helpful, but knee-length has pretty much gone out of fashion now. At the Worlds and All Irelands no one wore them. "New Championship length", between "knee length" and "championship length", is the in-thing now. It is two ribs longer than "championship", and they look really nice on. But of course, if you like knee-length, it should be available to you.
