Slade Socks

This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

Slade Socks were bright/garish to say the least. They were luminous socks in lime green, orange yellow or pink with a number of black hoops down the ankle. Sure to make you stand out in a crowd! All the rage around 1973/'75.

    You could always contact Unicorn - if they are that popular they might just get them back in. If I come across any more I will let you know and no doubt you will do likewise. You tried e-bay? Whereabouts r u based?
