Latex programming socks (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 3 months ago by wetsuiterest to c/unixsocks

So on my previous post I received a comment by user anothercatgirl who proposed that fewer stripes might be better.

Well I took that to the extreme and got some latex socks without any stripes. Perhaps this will make me even better at programming!

That aside, I just love how the light of the displays reflect on the oiled latex thigh high socks.

I might post a naughtier pic on my fetlife profile and on reddit in the future (same username) :)

I suddenly really want some latex thigh highs

Where'd you get yours? Anything a total newbie to latex should know?

[-] wetsuiterest 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I got them from a webshop in my country, because I couldn't be bothered to wait a long time to get them custom made. It's risky though because you won't know the quality if you don't buy from a reputable seller.

This bit is tripping me out and I keep staring.

[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 22 points 3 months ago

Is this your first bit of rubber? Funny how wearing it for a while, you kind of forget it's on. I love the second-skin feeling.

[-] wetsuiterest 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Yep though the size of the feet is a bit too small so I can't wear it for too long. Guess I will have to get it made to measure.

I also bought a latex hooded swing dress which is made to measure, as well as some latex pants. I still need to upload those photos and videos.

I also got some dimethicone 100cst because the other silocone lube I was using evaporated too quickly.

I'm thinking of buying a catsuit and some long gloves and some other dresses next.

I use an actual dressing aid, there's a recipe from reddit I've been meaning to try but buying a tube is easy for now:

PROPORTION RATIO 
0.653 DIMETHICONE
0.327 CYCLOMETHICONE
0.020 PHENYL TRIMETHICONE

Once the latex is on, your sweat will do the rest 😎

If you get new socks, try out chlorination. I haven't yet, but people seem to like it.

[-] wetsuiterest 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah I was thinking of making a mix, though pure dimethicone also works fine and doesn't evaporate. I don't mind the lubed up feel, it's a bit hard to not use too much though. Also I think for these mixes, the viscosity of the ingredients matters a lot.

The store I bought from doesn't do chlorination and it's a bit too dangerous for me to do it myself.

[-] myotherself@lemmings.world 2 points 2 months ago

If you get new socks, try out chlorination

Chlorinated latex is great for casual wear because you don't need dressing aid, but it feels and smells different than unchlorinated latex and if you want it shiny, you still need to apply silicone oil on the outside (although the dull surface can look great, too).

Does that mean you'll do typesetting now?

[-] rescue_toaster@lemm.ee 11 points 3 months ago

I zoomed in looking for tex code. Was disappointed.

[-] wetsuiterest 4 points 3 months ago

I don't do typesetting (for tv video) anymore, it's just too much work.

[-] Pandantic@midwest.social 13 points 3 months ago

This is a nice shot. I mean, I guess I’ll have to go check out the fetlife ones to see more of this quality photography.

Also, I’m so salty that someone downvoted all the comments. I know I shouldn’t be but I am.

[-] wetsuiterest 9 points 3 months ago

Thank you! I still have to upload everything to fetlife, just got to find the energy. Also if you have suggestions that would be great.

[-] Smorty 8 points 3 months ago

WOAH spicy. Too spicy for me, sorry..

[-] wetsuiterest 5 points 3 months ago
[-] Smorty 10 points 3 months ago

Also, isn't it crazy much work to get these on?

[-] wetsuiterest 9 points 3 months ago

Yes you first have to hand wash them with some soap, then put some silicone lube on the inside, put then on and try to get all the air out, then shine up the outside, and then be careful you don't fall cus now everything is slippery haha.

Then after wearing you got to wash and lube them again to store them.

[-] RowanBird779 8 points 3 months ago

oh wow.... idk what to say lol

[-] arkthos@yiffit.net 6 points 3 months ago

My biggest problem with latex socks is all the squelching that starts happening as sweat pools up in the feet. Like wearing wet boots.

I know there are some with little air holes in the bottom though, got a pair like that?

[-] wetsuiterest 5 points 3 months ago

Nope, these are completely closed. I don't really mind the lubed up feel and the squelching, though it might be a different story if I wore them longer. I tried wearing them to sleep last night, but the feet are a bit too small so it was too uncomfortable to be able to sleep.

hot. Yo do you have any advice about fetlife? I have been thinking of making an account but I also read about many bad experiences that people had and got kinda spooked.

[-] wetsuiterest 6 points 3 months ago

Thank you!

When I made my account many years ago I got some messages from old dudes that wanted to get to know me, which put me off using fetlife for many years. I've only recently started using it again now that I am more mature and I know how to set boundaries. Since I've used it so little, I don't know if I can give advice about it.

You could make an account and see if it is something for you.

alr I will give it a try

[-] svcg 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

At what point do socks becomes stockings, though?

[-] wetsuiterest 5 points 3 months ago

Maybe stockings are just a specific type of sock? Same as knee high socks.
