You take the photo and we print it on socks! We can print one photo on one sock and a second photo on the other sock in the pair. 


Pinterest craft people - You know who you are... GET CREATIVE! Our socks are a great, blank canvas to have some fun taking photos of your kids with personalized messages on small chalk boards. Too cute and a perfect gift for Grandma!





We can also split one photo so half of the image prints on one sock and half prints on the other sock.  Add a special message and sign it! A super substitute for a Mother's Day card.

Sockprints Staff Picks - Jessica Ly - Photos, Monograms, and Fraternity Socks



We're happy to introduce you to Jessica Ly and some of her favorite custom printed and personalized socks by sockprints.  Perhaps some of her favorites will be yours too! 








"I recently graduated from the University of Redlands and played on the Women’s Tennis Team all four years. I created custom socks with a picture of me at NCAA’s! I think it’s great that sockprints allows for customization!














The monogram socks are my favorite!! I recently convinced my mom to get some of these socks for her friends from high school. They all loved them and they make awesome gifts!





I love all the sorority and fraternity socks available on our Etsy shop, SockprintsOnEtsy! The men’s crew socks make great gifts for fraternity brothers! This is one of my favorite designs!"

The 13-year-old Boy Sockprints Test

At sockprints we are constantly working to improve our products by testing and researching new markets, conducting test prints, offering new styles and more.  Our latest successful test results came from a group of 13 year old boys at a birthday party.

Our community has a new indoor trampoline park and my son couldn’t wait to have his 13th birthday party there with his friends.  Not knowing much about the venue I called ahead and asked what the participants wore on their feet to jump.  I was told that they wear shoes that they get there and that the boys need to wear socks.  And just like that, I knew what the party favor was going to be!  Yep, how could a sockprints mom give any other party favor?

My son has seen all sorts of socks that we’ve printed and when I asked him how he felt about giving his friends some sockprints, his only concern was that we didn’t print some girly, pink, or bright colors or designs on the socks.  We came up with these socks to give the boys and the feedback I’ve gotten from some of the moms was that they are a hit!  One of the toughest crowds to please gave us the thumbs up!

Here’s a conversation on the car ride home one of the moms shared with me via email putting a BIG smile on my face!    

Luke:  WOW, I love these!  No one ever made me socks before! I wish my mom could make socks!  I love these!  Do you think she can put a logo on it?  These are great! I wish my mom could make socks!

Jonny:  Dude, Hayley can put anything on a sock.

Luke:  Jonny, are you gonna wear your socks to school tomorrow?  I think I'm gonna wear my socks, I love these socks!

Jonny:  Dude, did you feel how soft they are? You can put them on your hands and use them as mittens, except they don't have the thumby things.

Luke:  If I can tie them together I can wear it as a sweat band for soccer...

Jonny:  EWWW.... 

If we can please this crowd, give us a shot for your next party favor, gift or other fun occasion!
Happy Birthday Chase!

5 Great Custom Sock Gift Ideas!

Everyone's looking for perfect gifts this holiday season and sockprints has a few ideas to help complete your shopping list! 



1.   Custom Coach Socks - Say thank you to your coaches for a great season or simply wish them Season's Greetings.  Using the sockprints online design gallery, it’s easy to select an image representing your sport and customize it with your coach’s name and your team name. 




2.  Naughty or Nice Socks – “He knows if you’ve been bad or good so be good for goodness sake!” How about wearing a pair of “naughty” socks on a bad day and on a good day, put on a pair of “nice” socks?  And for those days when you want some leeway, create your own custom “naughty and nice” variation socks!  We think these are really fun for the holiday season. 


3.  Group gifts – Are you looking for that special gift for friends in your book club, bunco group, bowling team, or other organization?  Personalize each pair of socks with your friend’s names.  They’re sure to be a hit!  We have some ready-to-customize bunco, book club and bowling artwork in our design gallery.

 

 
4.   Business socks – We’ve printed lots and lots of socks with company logos on them.  They’re a perfect way to say thank you to your customers and to keep your brand on their minds.






5.   Party favors – Everyone loves a great take-home gift and custom socks are a fun way for guests to remember your hospitality!  Take a peek at these “mistletoe” socks I created for our family Christmas party last year.

The Top 5 Reasons to Custom Print Socks






  1. Because We Can -  Up until now the only way customize socks was to knit in a design, add a direct embroidery, or silk-screening.  All these options are fine, but usually require a minimum order in the dozens and a set up fee.  We designed a way to print socks on an apparel printer that prints 2 or 3 pairs of socks at one time. No big minimums and no set up fees – that works for us!





  1. Socks are Hot - You can see them on all the Spring 2011 fashion runways and trend magazines. Everyone is wearing them – why not put a design on your own?



  1. A Great Way to be Creative - We know there are many talented people who are always looking for new ways to show off their designs and express themselves – the AnaJet apparel printer we use has an incredible color range and the detail is amazing.  


  1. Be an Early Adapter - Of course socks have been around for a long time, but until now printed socks were not an option.  It’s a new idea with so many ways to use them – we have filled orders from high school sport teams to socks promoting a personal trainer.  We can go on and on, but you get the idea…..

  1. Good for the Sole - Most people wear socks everyday.  Create some special pairs for yourself and others – it’s a fresh, fun, and unique way to personalize socks at sockprints.com!
