So, I went and did a better investigation of the RTB website and was loving what I was seeing. Not only are they reasonably priced at $14/pair, there is also FREE shipping! How sweet is that?
What led me to the decision of purchasing these socks is because I was constantly having to combine socks AND leggings for Edyn when we went out. Her jeans didn't stay down as I was carrying her outside and being it is super cold in the winter, I wasn't a fan of her legs being bare. Plus she is either pulling her socks off OR they are falling off, even w/the combo.

| Not to happy about her double-up legging/sock combo |
 |
| Loves that her socks stay on! So happy! |
I remember thinking - there HAS to be something out there that will keep Edyn's little feet and legs warm during the frigid winter months. VIOLA! I found RTB socks about a month later!
Jen, the owner created this company 4 years ago and launched it one 1 year ago! She is a mom of 4 girls and one day, couldn't find thigh-high socks and decided that she needed to create something! She lives in Wisconson, so, she to, wanted to keep her kids legs and feet warm in the winter months. She also (seems) like a very nice person. We had been e-mailing back and forth about the socks. She also has an incentive program where you can e-mail her about different stores that you think would be a good place to sell her socks. If the store decides to sell them, you will receive 7.5% commission OR free socks! So, I had e-mailed her about this great store in my hometown of Algona called The Market. Kelly sells lots of unique items and I wanted to let Jen know about it.
Well - here is the CRAZY part that made me feel like I 'knew' Jen and had some sort of connection. When she had read my e-mail saying that I was from Algona, she had e-mailed back, first thanking for recommending her socks to Kelly and to say she lived in Swea City until she was 5! (For those who don't know, Swea City is a 1/2 hour from Algona and both my parents are from Swea City)
Isn't that nuts? So we were 'talking' about Swea City and Algona through a few more e-mails.
Back to my experience w/RTB! I decided to order Pink Polka Dots and Neapolitan. When they arrived just 2 days after I ordered them, I was even MORE happy with how they looked. In person they look even better than they do online. I couldn't wait for little miss to try them on. I decided to order the size 1-2 years, that way, they will fit her for awhile.

| The socks have arrived! |

| Happy about her new socks! |
The socks come in 16 different styles/colors and 6 different sizes! 0-6 months, 6-12 months, 1-2 years, 2-4 years, 4-6 years, 6-8 years. Plus, Jen has a design background, so she, herself designs the socks!
TO end - here are my pinpoints on why I think Rock-A-Thigh socks are the best!
- They are priced right and there is free shipping on the website
- They are super cute and you have lots of designs to choose from
- They keep your little one's legs and feet warm
- They will stay up and babies can't take them off
- For girls - a great alternative to tights!
- A lot easier to change a diaper and easier for potty-trainers!
- Eco-friendly
- 100% made in the USA
- It's a great company! 10% of all online sales goes to designated charities!
