If you are looking for lolita socks and tights, there are a lot of Chinese brands that make their own original designs these days. We’ll introduce you to some of them today!
Let’s begin with some of the popular options~
Roji Roji
Taobao: https://rojiroji.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/5859333371
Roji Roji is currently one of the most popular shops for sweet socks and tights. They have a large selection of designs that are relatively cheap and always in stock. There are cotton socks, glass socks, lace tights, gold stamped tights, and more. The over the knee socks are said to be tall friendly as they are very very long.
Yukine’s Box
Taobao: https://shop126844055.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/5620516038
Yukine’s Box has emerged as another popular place for sweet lolita socks. They have a small selection of cotton socks in either ankle, calf, and over the knee lengths and also currently have two ankle/wrist cuff designs. Their releases operate on preorders, but they sometimes have ready stock after each preorder period is done. Their most popular design is the striped macaron color socks that come in a variety of colors and go well with many Angelic Pretty prints.
Yidhra
Taobao: https://yidhra.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/yidhra
Yidhra is best known for their glass socks and gold/silver stamped tights but they also have a few printed designs. They have great options for those looking for more subtle or versatile socks in their wardrobe. The designs lean more gothic but they have recently been making more sweet designs. Be warned that glass sock designs in general are not very plus size friendly.
Red Maria
Taobao: https://redmaria.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/2992803700
Red Maria is a brand that is consistently well known for their tights but they also make cotton socks. They have plus size friendly printed tights that are very stretchy and have decent thickness. The tights are printed on white fabric so any dark or black prints will become whiter where it stretches. The newer cotton socks are a bit more narrow and don’t stretch as much as their tights. For printed tights, Red Maria is a very good quality and trusted brand to buy from.
Hymn Originals
Taobao: https://shop209914248.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/Hymnoriginals
Hymn Originals is one of the newer brands on this list that focuses on socks. They don’t have many available designs at the moment but do have future releases planned. Their current sock designs are calf length cotton socks available through preorder, although ready stock is sometimes available after the preorder period ends. Their newest release at this time is a pair of waffle printed socks. How cute is that?
Ruby Rabbit
Taobao: https://shop126104842.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/5137262583
Ruby Rabbit is another brand that has been around for a long time and has been well loved. They offer a decent collection of printed and gold stamped tights. The sheer tights with a white stamped print on them are delicate and should be handled with care as they are easy to ruin.
Stellar Winds of the Universe (星风宇宙)
Taobao: https://shop33343052.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/7084432213
Stellar Winds of the Universe isn’t as well known as some of the other brands on this list but they have a variety of printed cotton socks in ankle or calf length, glass socks and tights, and a few printed tights or over the knee socks. The cotton socks are mostly available in sweet prints but the tights may be suitable for other styles.
Reina
Taobao: https://shop108333718.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/5888353847
Reina specializes in gold or silver stamped tights and over the knee socks in several designs mostly on black or white. The store also sells other general socks and some underwear for some reason.
Sweet Migo
Taobao: https://shop220123994.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/2671812965
Sweet Migo has a few original sock designs but also resells other socks from time to time. Although they don’t have as many designs as other stores, the socks are nice quality. The gold stamped socks are glittery and thicker than many other shops that have gold stamped socks.
Sheep Puff
Taobao: https://mianyangpaofu.tmall.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/7409419002
Sheep Puff is originally popular for their bags and shoes, but they have started to branch out into offering socks as well. Their socks are generally ankle or calf length cotton socks. Some designs are meant for JK (nanchatte) but can work with lolita as well.
Mu Fish
Taobao: https://mu-fish.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://weibo.com/mufish2012
Mu Fish has been around for a long time. When the English speaking world first found out we could order lolita from Taobao, Mu Fish was always one of the shops recommended for lolita socks and tights. The selection has dwindled over the years but they still offer great options for printed tights. Since Mu Fish is the same company as Lovely Lota (a popular shop for cute bags), you may see some of the same socks and tights on both Lovely Lota and Mu Fish storefronts on Taobao.
Waguir (袜贵人)
Taobao: https://shop112468007.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/5287205816
Waguir is a good source for generic lace socks and solid tights. The socks and tights you will find here will be a bit on the plainer side but they are more versatile. This is also the place to get lace topped ankle or knee socks. Some of the designs may not be great for lolita but they are always releasing new designs. Since the newer stock photos tend to be taken with a filter, checking their Weibo account is a good way to see customer or model photos in different lighting.
Arancia Lolita
Taobao: https://shop108541433.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/ljsdcz
Arancia Lolita has glass and gold stamped tights. Not much differentiates it from other shops that sell similar tights. However, it is worth a look for some different designs if you are searching for these types of tights.
Tomato Shop
Taobao: https://shop236734026.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/7457132186
Tomato Shop is a relatively new brand that has popped up. They currently have two designs of printed cotton socks in calf and ankle lengths but have more releases for socks planned in the future.

Taobao: https://shop108641797.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/3942386002
XHL Lolita appears to have made a few different designs in the past, with some being collabs with other brands to match specific dress releases. There isn’t much in stock right now, but what they do have is quite cute and may work for sweet or classic.
小小的开心
Taobao: https://shop143947009.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/7124748389
小小的开心 roughly translates to little happy. They seem to have one original design at this time and resell a lot of other cute cotton socks suitable for sweet lolita. Please be aware that the socks they resell are mainly in children’s sizes.
Lily酥 (Lily’s Lolita)
Taobao: https://lilysu.taobao.com/
Weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/6319334235
Lily酥, or Lily’s Lolita has a very small selection of tights and resells some generic socks, but their most popular item are these patterned lace ankle socks available in white or black.
