Here’s one thing you haven’t thought about lately: the history of socks. This heel-hugging layer was originally made of animal skins tied around the ankles, and sometimes matted hair was added for warmth. Luckily, times have changed.
Launched in 1972 as slipper-socks, Muk Luks are the original comfort footwear. Nowadays the brand retains its signature comfort, but it’s added a trendy twist: animal boots just for kids.
They’re styling winter-friendly boots as dinosaurs, teddy bears, and everything in between. A choice of 13 different styles means both boys and girls will find a style they like, and these durable hard-sole boots come with a super soft faux-fur lining that means socks are 100% optional, even in the middle of January.
Best of all, they’re easy to slip on (or off) with those Halloween costumes—and they’re guaranteed to quell any cold-weather-over-costume arguments from your little ones.
They only thing you’ll be regretting this October 31st (besides that insane sugar rush) is that the fun animal ones are made in kid sizes only.
