Sock It To Ya

Excellent selection of coloured tights, which are totally my jam. The best is the selection of Hue tights, but they have other brands. And more than once they’ve saved me when I’m in need of plain to fancy hosiery for an event (because ladies, just avoid the drugstore hose, especially Shopper’s Drug Mart).
They’re not terribly cheap, but it’s always been worth the cost. And they know their stuff and are super friendly and helpful.

This shop has the best selection of tights and socks in Halifax, with a small side selection of ladies’ fancy underthings and even Spanx, to choose from. You’ll find some fun things marked way down on the sale rack, but generally the prices are high. If you’re looking for something special, you’ll find quality tights made in Italy and the like, just be prepared for high prices.
I’ve been in a few times, and most recently with a giftcard type coupon. Twice I have found different staff people to be very timid about letting me use the giftcard, not being sure how to handle it even though it should simply be like cash. Phone calls had to be put in to the owner offsite, who apparently needs to approve anything out of the ordinary even though the terms were listed on the coupon I had in hand. It was more trouble than it was worth, so I’m glad I stocked up, as the service wasn’t great and I’m taking a break even though the selection is very good.

OK, so this isn’t exactly a place I’d go to buy basic socks. But when I’m looking for a sharp-​looking new pair of tights (or whatever word it is you say for tights — stockings, hosiery, whatever) I head here.
There are so many colors, patterns and styles to choose from, and the prices really vary. Sometimes it can be good to invest — my waistband-​less Calvin Klein tights are pretty much my favorite things, even though I ripped them and can only where them with boots now. You can also find Spanx and other undergarments, as well as a little display of cute accessories.
I also love that the staff are friendly and helpful, but not overbearing. Nothing causes anxiety like someone lurking around you while you look at underwear.

This place is such a little throwback to old-​time downtown shopping. It’s teeny tiny, staffed by usually just one person, and occasionally has a ‘Back in ten!’ sign up on the window as that person grabs lunch. Add on the fact that all purchases are rung in by hand (debit and credit available — but inventory is managed on paper), and you have a refreshingly low-​tech boutique experience.
The product ranges from generic to known brands like Calvin Klein, JM and more. While the price tags often look steep ($ 30 for a pair of underwear), there are often incredible sales that end up leaving you with a bargain on designer finds. Definitely worth checking out!

Popped into Sock it to Ya today to see what was new. I’d seen the window of ‘Spanx’ bathing suits and got a little curious! But before I could get to the suits, I was distracted by the flourishing rack of sale items. Ooh lala… I hadn’t planned on spending anything today…
Lots of great sales! I ended up snatching up a fabulous stretch camisole with a built in underwire bra. This thing was top grade quality and seemed to do a great job of keeping it all in check. (You know?) I love sports bras, and the compact fit they ensue, so this kind of cami + support was perfect. And 50% off… party time.
Always a solid selection of tights, leggings and socks. Fishnet, colors, patterns, opaque– its all there. And since I was going into the dressing room with my cami, I figured why not try these so called ‘Jaggings’ while I was there? (Leggings that look like jeans.) It took a few sizes and colors to get it right, but the woman working was very helpful and gave an honest opinion. I decided to invest the $ 35 in a pair.
Settling up at the cash, I remembered my sole purpose in coming in. The Spanx bathing suit! I asked the woman about them and she mentioned that they are pretty costly at $ 300+ a piece. Eek. They’re also a bit short waisted, but other than that they make a fine suit. I’ll stick with the Jaggings.
Love this shop though. Always such genuine, fluff free service and the best of the best stretch product.

Soc It to Ya– is a fun little shop fulled to the rim with just that socks. They have everything that you can just imagine when it comes to this line.
Not only do they carry socks they also carry nice under garments such as panties and bras as well a thing for men, yes you are included as well. Most everything there is what I would say top of the line when it comes to this kind of thing.
If you are ever suck for a present for that someone special that has everything this would be a neat store to visit and pick something up for them. A little pricey but the things are unique and not found in most department stores so they can charge the $$

I really like Sock it to Ya. Even though it is a fairly tiny shop, they have lots of variety when it comes to underwear, bras, stockings and socks, plus quite a few styles sure to interest even the pickiest of shoppers.
Last time I was in, I picked up a few undergarments for reasonable prices. Each item cost about $ 30, which I felt comfortable paying because the quality was top notch. They carry quite a few brand names and have merchandise ranging from conservative to funky.
The staff are friendly and approachable, always offering assistance with sizes and helping you to find different designs. They have a good grasp on what they have in stock, which is great because they can grab things for you pretty quickly.
I recommend this shop if you’re in the market for some new under-​outfits. Your tootsies and buns will thank you for venturing into a store designed purely for them!

Sock It To Ya has everything covered from tights, socks and undergarments.
You can’t miss this store. It is a very «tight» space inside, so if your shopping with a stroller, you will not be able to move around in here.
The variety is good, the prices acceptable, and the staff is friendly.
If your in the mood for socks, I am sure you can find something here.

The window display alone is enough to make anyone want to stop by this store. With mannequins in bra and undies, even the guys will want to stop by this store. Sadly, most of the items are catered towards women, or the eclectic men out there.
This place really does have everything from socks to bras, tights to leggings. They’ve got an interesting selection with some rather funky designs. They have plenty of different colours, so you’re sure to be able to find something to match almost anything you own.
It’s such an interesting store that I could spend a good half an hour just browsing the selection. The prices aren’t too outrageous and I don’t feel ripped off when I leave this place. For all your undergarments needs, give Sock It To Ya a try.

This is a great little shop, bursting at the seams with every type of undergarment imaginable: wacky tights, panty-​hose, socks, PJ’s, boxers, bra’s/underwear, spanx, slippers along with a ton of funky accessories (hair clips, earrings etc.)
This store is guaranteed to be packed around this time of year, so get in early if you’re hoping to find a pair of bright orange tights to complete your Halloween costume. Every female university student in the city goes through this place in search of a pair of colourful fish net tights in October though, so if you’re just wanting to browse, possibly save yourself a few jostled encounters and wait until next week.
Great men’s selection available too!
All of the walls in ‘Sock it to Ya’ swing open to reveal extra inventory so if you don’t see your size, don’t assume the shop is too small to possibly have extras.
