Gift Option #1
You’ve seen socks just like these sold in stores, and now you can provide them to your clients. Unbelievably soft and featuring slip-resistant grippers on the bottom, these wearables are a seamless blend between fuzzy socks and cozy slippers. You can bet these branded socks will be the first thing end-users grab to wear on those chilly winter mornings. Choose from a wide range of colors to find your client’s perfect shade and then finish the look with direct embroidery in up to nine thread colors.
Promo Sock Prospects:
- Retail stores (free gift with purchase)
- Corporate (so staff can work from home in comfort)
- Streaming services (include in PR packages promoting new content)
Gift Option #2
We’ve got even more fuzzy socks for you. This super soft crew boasts retail-quality appeal, plus its taller height provides more cozy coverage for recipients. Choose between trendy light or dark gray colors, both of which will match end-users' daily wear flawlessly, which means they’re sure to be worn often. Direct embroidery in up to nine thread colors allows brand logos and company names to pop, and it also ensures decoration won’t fade or wear over time. From their first wear to their last, recipients will appreciate how your clients gave them something durable to enjoy this holiday season.
Promo Sock Prospects:
- Real estate (gifts for new homeowners)
- Sports teams (sell socks as seasonal merchandise)
- Trade shows (hand out to attendees)
Gift Option #3
If your clients and their consumer base prefer socks that are more lightweight, flat knit is the way to go. These stylish socks are great for everyday wear and layering with pants and leggings, as they won't look bulky or bunch up. They’re also extremely breathable, which will help keep feet cool and comfortable all day long. The all-over knit-in logo is an especially popular design for corporate accounts, making this style a shoe-in (pun intended!) for employee recognition gifts.
Promo Sock Prospects:
- Corporate holiday parties (hand out as party favors during the event)
- Client appreciation (send to important accounts to thank them for their business)
- End-of-year awards (celebrate top staff members or sales teams)
Gift Option #4
When foot support is a top concern, steer clients toward full-cushion socks. This sock is made with soft terry knit construction around the full foot of the sock. The result? The end-user's feet are surrounded with soft and snuggly thick fabric, providing greater support, cushioning and warmth than standard socks allow. These socks have a high perceived value that end-users will notice, which means a positive brand association for your clients into the new year.
Promo Sock Prospects:
- Colleges and universities (sell in campus bookstores)
- National and state parks (sell as souvenirs or gift to donors)
- Nonprofits (give to charity run participants to wear)
Gift Option #5
We can’t talk holiday wearables without discussing wool socks. This full-cushion wool crew has great arch support and extra padding around the foot to keep the wearer feeling nice and toasty, even during winter storms. Not only is the arch support essential for comfort, it also helps the socks remain steady on the foot. After all, no one likes the feeling of socks bunched up inside winter boots! Available in ten different colors of wool, you’ll be able to match your client’s corporate branding in soft and cozy style.
Promo Sock Prospects:
- Ski resorts (sell or gift with season passes)
- Food & beverage (include in holiday gift set bundles)
- Healthcare (thank essential workers for all that they do)
