    Basically, they are an alternative to more expensive hose that have a permanently attached decorative cuff. You can also swap them between hose of varying colors, and replace the hose when toes/heels wear out but keep using the cuffs with new hose. Not the same look as custom-matched, hand-knit hose but an alternative for everyday wear.

    I have 4 pairs of Sydnie's Hose Toppers and they are fantastic. I have gotten compliments nearly everytime I wear them. She is correct about being able to swap them with different hose. I have one pair that go ideally with both a solid forest green or a lovat green. I would personally recommend them.
