Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Hey Tamsin, Old Navy sock are thin with the plastic? bubble letters on the bottom. The stuff on the bottom is no skid, so it helps prevent slipping in the shoes. The Old Navy 0-3 month socks were too small for Zoe until she got older. Any socks with the stuff on the bottom would work. We also just used the thickest socks (without the no skid stuff) for a while because her feet were so tiny. I had some from Walmart from my first child, the McBaby line. Not sure if they do them anymore. Just try to imagine your feet in socks with a really tight shoe. Try to get all of the wrinkles out and get the heel in the right part of the sock, even if you have a flappy bit hanging at the front (from the toes). I also try to make sure that the stitching part at the toe is on the front of her foot (running along her toes, not on top, but in front). I noticed that that stitching made extra little dents in her feet and thought that it couldn't be to comfy.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 I've been using 'Baby Bum' socks from Walmart. The roll at the top and have a bit of lycra in them.
