Just a very distinctive type of socks I liked as a child, now a bit easier to get to work as a lora.

Oh, I was actually considering this as my Christmas release LoRA but decided to do the Home Alone one instead. Some tips (feel free to ask questions on LoRA making, but these are the ones I can tell right away)
1: I'm guessing you used store product images for this given how your sample gallery looks. I'd recommend using the tags "lower body" and "footwear focus" as well as the applicable of "1boy, solo" or "1girl, solo" (edit:for those images). If you have any that aren't worn, you can use the tag "unworn socks". Do this and they'll integrate just fine without as strongly biasing it.
2: There's existing sock length tags that are preferred over "conventional" language. In order of length: No-show socks, ankle socks, kneehighs, over-kneehighs, thighhighs, hiphighs
Oh sure! And yes, I did use store pictures, but I was aiming for ones that weren't just 'on a blank white background', though it still wound up being a bit focused on that judging by its resulting pics. If I train it again, Re: #1 I can try adding them! From what I've seen it works out alright for my purposes, at least on my SD install it made the right socks show up! Re: #2 see that bugs me, but only because crew length is in between ankle length and knee-high XD But that's what I get for being particular about socks...
@ulrichmorgan Ah, so you're also trying to train a particular length as well. Note that "kneehighs" isn't literal, from the description on Danbooru (the art catalog website Illustrious was built off the database of) "Despite the name, kneehighs are usually slightly shorter than knee-height, usually ending a few inches below the knee, or at around 3/4 calf height. If they're completely below shin-height, they're ankle socks." and "Despite the name, [ankle socks] refers to socks that are slightly above the ankles, not the extremely short ones that stop exactly at or below the ankles. They end before the shins; if they go over the shins, they become kneehighs.".
If you want a very specific length, you can actually push one of the two to become that exact length by using the tag and having all images using that tag being the desired length. It's the same way you are pushing a general hairstyle (e.g., "short twintails") to become a particular character's version of that hairstyle in training.
"I was aiming for ones that weren't just 'on a blank white background"
Those kind of pics are actually ideal for training as long as they get tagged "simple background, white background" (replace white with grey/black/etc. as appropriate). There's some types of LoRA I wouldn't have all the data be like that (e.g., vehicles would want some pics with backgrounds and people for understanding scale, styles want BGs to understand things like lighting and focus), but since clothing is scaled for the intended wearer, that's in the pictures and Illustrious knows plenty about humans already, it won't be an issue.
