    Comic Heroes Tube Socks!




    Pretty commonplace now but back in '76 some Shazam! socks would have really brightened my day. Especially 65% Orlon Shazam socks.

    I would sport these with pride, even today. Orlon always brings out the best in people.

      Seems like I had the Superman and Batman ones. Those Shazam socks were no doubt popular when the show was new!

          I seem to remember them, but I never had a pair.

              I remember getting a pair of Incredible Hulk socks at Kmart in the mid-70's.

              It was the first and only time I ever got excited about getting a new pair of socks.

                I think I remember seeing these in a Walmart not to long ago, not exactly this style but I have seen
                superhero socks, Superman,Batman,Spiderman, although unfortunately not for adults.

                  I had both the Batman and Superman ones as a kid. I wore them so much the character eventually rubbed off.
