Women Knee High Socks

# The history behind knee-high socks

As you would expect from such an essential item of clothing, socks have a long and rich history. First worn by the ancient Greeks in the 8th century BC and called ‘piloi’, socks have come a long way. Knee-high socks were originally worn by Romans for their practicality and warmth. However, our knee-high socks are the direct descendants of stockings. Stockings were fashionable when worn with breeches in the early modern period. In more recent years however, women’s knee-high socks have been worn as fashion statements in their own right. Women’s knee-highs became popular in the United States in the 1920’s before making a resurgence in the 1960’s and 70’s. Nowadays knee length socks for women are worn both for fashion and for function. Read on to find out how best to wear your knee-highs!
