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!"

Think Pink - Personalized Breast Cancer Awareness Socks!

Think Pink - Personalized Breast Cancer Awareness Socks!

It’s that time of the year when we keep encouraging all the strong women battling breast cancer, remember those who lost the battle, and increase awareness of the disease.

This month’s spotlight is on sockprints’ friend, Lourdes who was diagnosed in August 2013 with breast cancer.  With a strong mind and an encouraging family, Lourdes never had any doubt in beating the disease.  During the process she lost her hair, battled with fatigue and weakness but always had a smile and a positive outlook.  Just a couple months after having a mastectomy and a couple rounds of chemotherapy, she was able to have strength to go back to work a couple times a week.  She is currently in her last round of chemotherapy!  Stay strong Lourdes!

Being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we are happy to share our latest collection of Breast Cancer socks!  We have added some new designs to our collection!  Check out our socks on our Etsy shop.  These awesome socks would be great gifts to anyone who is dealing or dealt with breast cancer! 

Enter our custom Breast Cancer Awareness Sock Giveaway!  You could win 3 pairs of personalized socks!

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 13^th 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!

 

Off to College!

Off to College!

For those of you who are not familiar with our story, sockprints was founded by two soccer moms in 2009 on the sidelines of a soccer field while watching our daughters play.  Week in and week out as the girls were competing on the field, we were brainstorming and building our business venture.  Just as our sockprints business has grown, so have our daughters and their aspirations of playing collegiate soccer.  While my daughter still has another year in high school, I’m thrilled my business partner’s daughter is off to play college soccer at Pepperdine University! 

Sending her to college without some custom socks wouldn’t be very cool, so we came up with these gems.  Good luck in the classroom and on the soccer field!  Go Pepperdine Waves!

It’s been a fun summer hearing about our friends’ kids and their post high school plans.  While some are off to play collegiate sports, others are getting ready to go through Sorority Recruitment (Rush - as us old timers still call it).  As I gladly wrote letters of recommendation for some young ladies, I recalled many fond collegiate sorority memories.  Best wishes to these women as they embark on Greek life!  I’m hoping they keep in touch and let me know which sorority they joined so I can send them some personalized sorority socks to say congrats!  We’re an official Greek licensed vendor for 10 national sororities and we even have our own sorority sockprints website. 

For those die-hard college football fans out there, custom socks are the perfect way to cheer for your team!  Create your own fan wear socks to wear in front of your big screen TV or ship a set to your college student.  Everyone loves getting a care package and to make your gift giving hassle free, we will ship your sock creations directly to your favorite college football fan.

  

Weddings - Love, Laughter, and Happily Ever After

Looking back at our customer orders over the past couple of months, it is clear that it is wedding season!  We’ve printed some fun and original socks for rehearsal dinners, bachelorette parties, bridal parties, and newlyweds.  Here’s a small sampling of some of the wedding socks that we’ve printed to inspire your next order.

Congratulations to newlyweds Matt and Catherine who asked us to print socks for their rehearsal dinner.  This fun couple added bowling to their big night!  What a great idea.  We love their theme and party favor.  They gave each guest a pair of bowling socks.  They selected both men’s and women’s no show socks in case their guests didn’t have a pair to spare (bowling joke  - hahaha).  They were some of our favorite customers this spring as they sent us a nice thank you note too.  Best wishes to you Cat and Matt! 

      

These socks were inspired by an upcoming bachelorette party.  Check out the new, neon no-show socks now available at sockprints (sold in sets of three as shown).  

          

And these socks are the perfect little something for the entire bridal party.  Each pair can be personalized with the bridesmaid's name. 

      

Don’t forget anniversary gifts too!  We love stories like this one we received from one of our customers who searched for the perfect anniversary gift.

 

"My wife and I are celebrating our second wedding anniversary soon.  The traditional gift for this anniversary is cotton.  I needed something unique and fun, just like her.  I came across your website and it was perfect.  Your socks are 80% cotton - I figured that counted.  I used the logo from her gift shop (www.theweddingcottage.net) for two of the sock sets and the other set was just a fun message.  The socks are awesome and I can't wait to give them to her!  I know she will love all three sets.  I'll definitely be back for more sock gifts!

Thank you Sockprints!"
- Jacob

Crafty Soles

When my kids were younger I loved capturing their age by doing craft projects that included their hand and footprints. I remember tracing my kids hands on construction paper and cutting them out to make Christmas wreaths and putting their footprints on cards for Mother's Day.

Here’s a new way to show off your child’s hand and footprints on a pair of socks. Check out this fresh, creative gift idea in our latest video!

Here Comes the Bride

The news of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s engagement last week got us thinking about some fun, custom socks in honor of the upcoming royal wedding.

Here’s a pair to congratulate the couple on their engagement. These socks are also a great gift to take to an engagement party.



How about these socks for Kate’s bachelorette party? Just in case Kate doesn’t head to Las Vegas with her gal pals, keep this gift in mind for your best friend.

And, socks for the happy couple! Look for our new, men’s performance sock available in 2011.

Tis the season for gift giving and I’m sure some lovely ladies will receive some bling under the tree and a marriage proposal!
