i've found some places where i can get six pairs of rockford red heel socks -

brown socks and mini socks - http://www.sockcrafts.com/RedHeelSocks.htm
brown socks and blue socks - http://www.supersockmonkey.com/catalog/redheelsocks.html

however, i recall poking around a while back and fiding a place that had red heel factory seconds, six pairs for around $18. does anyone know where this is? or know where i can find a quantity of these socks inexpensively? thank you.

I buy mine directly from foxsox.com (the manufacturer), but if you don't mind some imperfections, you can get seconds from this etsy seller:

I buy my red heel off of ebay, but be careful.  I bought 24 pairs of seconds once and more than half were not usable for monkeys.  Quite a waste of money, I could have bought firsts for the price I paid for what I could use.

Some of them had no red (red heel socks with no red?) Some had threads out all the way down the down, so there would have been a stripe you could see filling through.  Some were a grey color, not the traditional brown (those got made into cats though).

I've found them at farm supply stores for around $6 for two pairs.
