SOOOOOO...SOCKS.

Dear friends, can you please tell me how to say, in japanese, the various types of socks?
- regular socks
- tabi socks
- socks with a pocket for each toe
- slouchy socks
- any other socks? :D

Regular socks = kutsushita

Tabi socks = tabi, maybe tabi socks (I think I got rid of the packaging on the ones I had)

Slouch socks (if you mean the kind that kogal wear) = loose socks, pronounced ruuzu sokkusu

I just googled it, and individual-toe-compartment socks are sometimes sold as "gohon-yubi sokkusu" (literally five-finger socks).
