SHaGS

SHaGS (Simultaneous Heel Flap and Gusset Socks) provide the perfect combination of comfort and style, offering the exceptional fit of a traditional heel flap and gusset without the hassle of picking up any stitches. This unique construction method is designed to eliminate that frustrating hole that often appears at the top of the gusset, ensuring a seamless finish.
