Happy Birthday to us!

It’s hard to believe that it was a whole year ago that I was sat here waiting for those first orders to come through to officially begin the TT journey.


Our first Winter season was amazing – far better than I ever imagined it would be. I was certainly on a huge learning curve and feel that I now have a much better understanding of what our customers actually want. I have made mistakes along the way and I am sure that I will make many more but Tykes Tights is now well and truly on the map, with orders and enquiries coming through from all over the world.

This last year has also been a huge journey for me. Learning the Tykes tights ropes as I have gone and dealing with huge upheavals in my personal life. It has certainly been a mentally, financially and massively emotionally draining year. All of which has been taken on board, dealt with and made me a stronger person, ready to deal with the challenges and successes of the coming twelve months.

Our range of stock has also increased with the addition of thermal underwear for the whole family, British made and excellent value for money. We also have our old favourites including our popular leather soled slipper socks which are now available in 5 different sizes!

With Christmas markets and baby fayres booked up throughout the Autumn and early Winter, I am sure that Christmas will be here before we know it.


So, let’s start that Christmas shopping now and as a huge thank you to all of our customers who have been part of the journey, please feel free to take advantage of our birthday present – 20% off all orders made on our website before midnight on Friday. (use BIRTHDAY at the checkout) 

We will look forward to meeting some more of you at the Christmas markets this year, please pop along and say hello.
