Corporate performance swag? We've got a sock for that. 2024
Lookbook
Custom performance socks for companies.
In today's world, the workplace is rapidly changing. 26% of U.S. employees work remotely, and that number is expected to reach 36.2 million by 2025. Compensation and benefits are no longer the only dominant factors in job seekers looking for new employment; culture fit and workplace values are on the rise. In order to retain employees, companies need to work harder to show employees they feel valued, heard, and cared for. However, some things remain the same.
Employees still love to receive branded swag, they just need swag that fits their new lifestyle. Performance socks are more casual, and promote a healthy lifestyle and overall wellness, as well as show employees who are on their feet all day that they are cared for. Company-supported initiatives to benefit non-profits like 5k races and golf tournaments are a great way to showcase company values. Performance socks are the perfect addition to all of these initiatives. Read on to find out how.

Testimonials
Testimonial:
Team Fish
TeamFish was formed in 2013. They participate in long distance cycling rides to raise money for JDRF, the leading non-profit involved in research to improve the lives and outcomes of people with Type One Diabetes (T1D). Over the years, they have participated in a number of rides and raised nearly a million dollars for JDRF and other charities.
Matt Fischer turned to branded swag to help raise money for JDRF and support the team.
TeamFish has, however, seen some challenges in accomplishing their fundraising goals. In today’s economy, people are more hesitant to donate money, especially when they are not seeing something in return.
When asked what he would tell other customers, he said simply, “Do it, people will love them.”
“We've ordered a bunch of stuff before but never socks. They turned out great and everyone loves them.”
TeamFish wears the socks with their cycling kits and gives them out to donors. Says Fischer, “Will definitely order again. Everything was fantastic. Quick turnaround time, great designs, quality products.”
Testimonial:
Aunt Flo A common pain point Aunt Flo experiences when it comes to promoting their cause is getting people to realize that period poverty is not a “women’s” issue, but a health issue. They created the "Flow Bros" for male advocates of their program, and handed these socks out to the attendees of the Stadium Managers Association Seminar in Florida. Perfect for a fit and active audience!
Testimonial:
Old Bones Society After having some success with his t-shirt designs, Old Bones Society's founder Matt Adamson and the OBS team were looking for the next unique merch item to add to their collection. “I really wanted to branch out into something that I haven’t seen as much, tattoo inspired socks! I feel like I don’t see a whole lot of socks with classic tattoo inspired designs and we wanted to make that a huge part of our brand."
