Socks? There's loads of places on the High street selling socks........winter woollies/thermal...all sorts.

Methinks you need to be a little more specific regarding which/what socks you're after.

You'll need to find white 100% polyester socks if you're wanting to sublimate them - there are more people with experience of this on TShirt Forums, as it does seem to becoming quite popular in the US (not sure why though!) if you look over there there's quite a few thread about them, with suggestions of brands and which socks work best.

Back in the 80´s, Leicester was a manufacturing center for socks and hosiery. Why not take a trip up to Narbourough road and see if there are any wholesalers with what you want.

there are a few places left in leicester, but unfortunately like most clothing industries, most have closed, or now merely import from the far east

you would not recognise it, if you know parts of it, then use google maps and see what they have done to it :(
