These leg warmers are so fun and do keep your legs warm! They are worn, daily, by the "mamitas" of the Andes. The native Quechua women who were born and live above 10K feet. Each has varied designs of alpacas, botanicals, snowflakes and birds. They are open ended on both sides and slip on over the foot and reach below the knee. They can be bunched up or worn extended. These are perfect for ballerinas, dancers, athletes, cold couch potatoes, prospective brides or anyone else that may have cold feet!
