Socks I love – Stance

I love the weird and wonderful socks designed by Stance.  In this particular article I have included a copy of the image of that of the Stance rugby sock, which is designed by Mark Gonzales.  You will see they don’t match and Stance have no regard to traditional patterns in that regard!

I really do find the whole look fascinating and Stance has numerous socks of different designs – not always consistent and some of them are extremely arty or related to different Universities.  They also have a range of Disney socks, Star Wars socks with all sorts of different characters and you might have the one character on the one sock and another character on another sock.  Strangely enough, I started wearing these socks because their golf socks have a grip on the bottom of the sock that allows it to keep its position in your show a way that very few socks do – in other words, they don’t slide as much within the shoe while you are wearing them as other socks would.

I love to wear socks on a relaxed day at home without shoes and my son is quickly picking up on that. The socks must be interesting as the socks designed by Mark Gonzales.

Oh my gosh I love these!!!! I wish there were more socks designed like this... It really displays the creativity of a person! Surely if you give someone a design, they can create anything for you though. That way, it's more personal and more you...

I love how I say that as if I have the most colourful sock range and I really don't ='''D Although, I would definitely get a few pairs with some musical notation or even lyrics on them :)

I wonder if they have for kids I will like to get a pair for my son because he loves socks.

I love this idea. I think it creates a lot of personality and character especially if one always has to dress formally then at least your socks can be colourful and fun!

The best socks to get are black / white socks and the same type of black / white socks. So that even if one goes missing you can still pair them up. One thing I cannot stand about socks is trying to keep them paired.

What are socks good for? Socks are good for keeping your feet covered and your toes warm! This is what socks are good for.

I have never heard about this brand of socks before, but after checking out their site I can see why they are a popular choice for socks. I would be a fan of the Mickey Mouse socks.

Personally I would find it hard to condition my brain to be comfortable stepping out the house with mismatched socks on purpose.
However, after having taken a peep at the other (matching) Stance designs I must admit their line is pretty intriguing.Maybe I am yet to be a nouveau fashionista!

Fun socks are fantastic! I love the bit of character they add and it also says something to me about the person wearing them- non-conformist with a bit of a fun side, someone who is an individual. It shows how far we have come. 10 years ago the idea of mismatched, funky socks would have been absurd. And for once a man may actually enjoy receiving socks as a gift!

It looks like Stance has come up with a very popular and original idea-especially the mismatched concept.

Socks have become a sort of a statement piece of clothing recently and I think this is a good concept as they are not only embracing the idea of " funky" socks but are also challenging the idea that socks need to match, which I am sure will attract many buyers.

I'm sure everyone owns socks. I always have a look at quality what does it help after a month they are so worn down that you have to throw them away by the end of the day rather buy better quality and it lasts longer.

My feet are always cold winter time and every winter never can find proper warm socks. Will be interesting to see how the quality of these socks designed by Stance. Suppose very good and price should be too. Can we found them here in South Africa?

im not a funcky sock person, i prefer to have all black and some white socks. obviously men wear more sock than woman. i saw some socks that you can actually change the temp on, so if your feet are cold, boop press the button and instant heat.

Just think if they never made sock and you needed to wear boots or Tekkies barefoot. I think that would have been terrible. Socks is definitely a must have item. I don't mind what socks to wear. If there are no holes in it I am happy.

The only time I wear socks is in winter or my "secret" socks which are not really secret when I wear pumps. I also can not sleep with socks on it feels like I'm suffocating, my feets must be bare. It does look like funky socks and the quality looks good. I find that the prices of socks has become ridiculous and every winter steals a pair or 2 of my husbands socks. It's funny how there is always 1 sock missing.

I will walk barefoot all day, every day. But socks in winter are a MUST. The Stance socks are very interesting. It’s always a mission to keep the partners of socks, but with this brand it doesn`t matter.

I just love socks, if asked as to what I want, socks are my answer. Have not tried Stance before, however may look into them

Angelique Jurgens  said:

I don't have a specific brand of socks that I wear religiously but during winter I really like thick socks and they are usually black. This is definitely creative - however I wonder what the price of them are. This blog makes me think of Rob Kardashian and his sock line.

I think Stance has quality, beautiful and comfortable socks. Look beautiful on pic

I find it impossible to match my socks, i am constantly wearing mismatched socks. But i love getting new socks, especially think and comfy ones

I feel that socks are a necessity in the winter. My husband has thousands of pairs of socks. I'm a pain when it comes to matching socks and it irritates me when my husband's socks don't match.

I have never been one to care much about matching socks, in fact, the more unusual the more I like them. I still love and still wear my toe sock for that very reason, they stay in place and boy are they comfortable. I find sneaker socks to be the worst kind every because they are not very sneaky when they constantly moving out your shoes so if stance has a good grip sneaker sock, I am in :-)

I absolutely love socks and have a slight obsession with buying an insane amount of socks. I have never even heard of Stance however I am told that they are quite a sporty brand, which may explain my ignorance. I am a huge fan of Happy Socks, they are so unique and still match (I would have an issue with socks that don't match.)

Mathilda  said:

I love this and it’s so unique, but I need my socks to look the same lol it will annoy me
The best socks for winter is Popcorn socks they are so comfy and warm and you get so many different colours and prints

I cannot get through winter nights without socks! People who don't sleep with socks on in winter are mad! I love it when guys wear funky socks with their suits. Its one of the only things they can really do to stand out when wearing a suit.

I like plain socks with very little detail on them but what I do like about these socks is grip you say they have assisting in them no sliding, that is an awesome idea because socks always tend to do that

I love socks in general, however I get annoyed when I can't find matching pairs. It's like an OCD thing LOL. So getting socks like this would be hard for me.

I love the funky design socks it looks so cute and you get a lot of different designs.

These socks are very different and will be good for kids to wear so they wont slip all the time, like with normal socks.

sliding socks are annoying. maybe they have done a good job by reinforcing them. their design also shows a complete move to the norm of similar. in my village we call them 'donkey and horse'.

This is very nice socks but they look like socks to me, maybe if I had to hold them in my hands and feel the texture I would see what you are talking about.

Bianca N.  said:

I like the design, it's very unique and not like the regular socks you will find in the shops.

I am currently wearing a pair! I love these socks - I have a pair with ice creams on them and another with pizza. The designs are really cool and they are so comfy! I originally purchased them because they are ideal for cold, winter morning cycles! Their cycling range is awesome!

People can never have enough socks, I like the design, it is definitely different to some of the socks I have seen for males. People have definitely become more creative when it comes to socks

Just goes to show that people do think out the box when it comes to simple and comfort of design.
