Stocking Tights

It's always pretty safe to say that gentlemen are usually interested, and more than a little intrigued, by ladies stockings. And, while it's probably safe to say that most women these days prefer the simplicity and comfort of tights for day-to-day wear, the charms of the humble stocking have still to wane.

But what about the Christmas Stocking? It might not be the item that immediately comes to mind when contemplating hosiery, but these little festive socks are essential items during the Christmas period – after all, where else is a girl to store her Stocking Fillers?

However, when it comes to items of clothing for the feet, it's not all about stockings – whether or not we're talking about variety that happily accepts Stocking Fillers. There are other vitally important pieces of clothing that we happily place upon our feet, such as socks. Available for pretty much everyone, socks can be manufactured from any number of materials; in their earliest incarnations they were actually made from pieces of animal skin. These days, socks are made from fabrics such as cotton, wool, nylon and polyester, and are available in any number of weird and wonderful designs – there are even some that fit the toes rather like gloves fit fingers, and others that look a little bit like Tabi.

Tabi are traditional Japanese socks. And while not particularly good for use as Stocking Fillers – unless you know someone who would appreciate a pair – they are fantastically useful items of clothing for anyone who likes to wear socks with thong-style sandals such as zori and geta. However, another type of Tabi exists; used by workers such as gardeners, construction-sector employees and farmers, these so-called Jika-Tabi are constructed from an altogether more robust material, and are more likely to be worn as boots, rather than socks – especially as they have a rubber sole.

But, back in the world of stockings, with Christmas fast approaching, you're going to need something pretty special when it comes to Stocking Fillers. And, whether you're looking to buy for a loved-one, or even a younger member of the family, making sure your Stocking Fillers score well on the sweetness factor is sure to be the secret of success this Christmas.

So, if you're buying for a younger member of the family, why not opt for the fantastic Flying Monkey? With the ability to fly over a distance of up to 15-metres, and at the same time able to make hilarious ape-like noises, Flying Monkey is guaranteed to put a smile on anyone's face – no matter what the age. And seeing as Flying Monkey has a number of cute friends, including Flying Chicken and the incredible Flying Frog, these fantastic Stocking Fillers are more than capable of trebling the fun this Christmas.

But if you're looking for cute Stocking Fillers this Christmas, why not go for a cuddly Teddy Bear? With a name that reportedly goes back to a hunting trip in November 1902 that involved former US President Theodore Roosevelt, Teddy Bears are predominantly made for children; however, a number of notable exceptions have become expensive collectors items, and museums have even been created in honour of these tiny toys.

So, this Christmas, for the ultimate in cute and cuddly Stocking Fillers, why not give the Personalised Christmas Teddy Bear a try? Sporting an attractive red jumper – that can be personalised with any name, up to 15-characters in length – the Personalised Christmas Teddy Bear is a wonderfully sweet addition to any family. He even wears an attractive red Christmas hat, which more than slightly resembles a traditional Camauro hat. Worn by the Pope, Camauro hats are customarily constructed from either red velvet or wool, and sport a trim made from white ermine – although they're only usually worn during the colder winter months.

However, this Christmas, hats might not be the best type of Stocking Fillers – although they might make an amazing gift providing they're neatly wrapped and placed underneath the tree.
