They don't have an inside or an outside, so you never need to worry about putting them on inside out.
Inside Out Socks
http://www.halfbake...nside_20Out_20Socks More topologically interesting socks. [td, Mar 26 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]
Upside down socks
http://www.halfbake...side_20down_20socks Geometrically perplexing socks. [td, Mar 26 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]
Moebius Roller Coaster
http://www.halfbake..._20Roller_20Coaster Another Topological amusement. [td, Mar 26 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]
Acme Klein Bottles
http://www.kleinbottle.com/ Cliff Stoll's basement business, walking distance from my house. Unfortunately, glass only, no doubleknits. The site covers most of the good non-orientable bric-a-brac jokes, so I needn't repeat them here. [td, Mar 26 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]
SciFi's Seeing Ear Theatre
http://www.scifi.com/set/playhouse/ Go to "The Elevator and the Pole." Not directly related to Klein socks, but a reference to a 4-d mobius bottle, and a good listen besides. [nick_n_uit, Mar 26 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]

Poem: "The Argyle Girl"
http://www.cyberene.../~kelta/argyle.html "She toyed with an orphan argyle / Pondering the destiny of its mate; / And wondered if she could twist / A sock into a Mobius strip / Or mold it into a Klein bottle." [egnor, Mar 26 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]

A pair of those would nicely match my Moebius sweatband. |

Can't believe we've missed the obvious until now: Calvin Klein clotheswear. Somebody should write to them. |

How many hidden gems are there in this mine? |
|

The existence of these socks implies that everyone is
already inside and outside of them. How do they feel? |
|

Perhaps a little awkward to put your shoes on when your
toes curl
back up through your a void in your shins. |
