Glad to hear of other good experiences with Hamilton Dry Goods. I know about them through their Ebay store - they had a good deal on over-the-knee socks (useful in a pinch as stockings for medieval/renaissance gear) a while back, something like 10 pair for $20. I don't have their Ebay seller ID on me but can look it up if others are interested.
