The 10 best occasions for custom socks

There are socks for everyone. Men and women, young and old, everyone is happy with socks. Are you thinking about your own custom-made socks? For staff or for customers? We have listed the 10 best occasions for custom socks.

1. Christmas

Christmas is of course at the top of the list; every year there is a period when your staff or customers want to be spoiled. At Sokkies Club (our subscription model for consumers), these are the most popular socks every year. What could be more fun than Christmas socks with your logo that are worn during the Christmas dinner? Many customers choose a Christmas theme in green/red colors.

2. Anniversary / Company party

Is your company 1 year old, 10 years old, or maybe even 25 years old? Surprise your staff and/or customers with a perfect corporate gift: socks in your company colors. Treat the birthday person!

3. Gift for customers

Do you want to thank a customer for completing an order, for a great collaboration, or to surprise them with a corporate gift? Everyone wears socks, so you're always covered with the perfect gift. A little something for a great price; our socks are available from €3.49.

4. Old and new

Are you starting the new year with a fresh wind in your sails and would you like to wish your customers or staff a happy new year? Add a little extra sparkle to it with a pair of socks. These can also be festive socks with, for example, champagne on them. Socks often last longer than the good intentions.

5. Day of Care / Nursing

In healthcare, a huge amount of socks are worn. Many healthcare workers enjoy wearing colorful socks as part of their work attire. Every year, we receive the most interesting designs from hospitals, nursing homes, and ambulance stations. Often with a medical theme in the organization’s branding.

6. Father's Day / Mother's Day

A self-drawn coloring sheet is beautiful, but as an employer, it takes quite a bit of effort for all the staff. A nice solution for Father's and Mother's Day are custom socks.

7. King's Day

Every year our king celebrates his party; this is an official holiday. An excellent reason for your employees to wear beautiful orange socks on this day. Don’t miss this opportunity to play the king (or queen).

8. Sinterklaas

Do you know what your staff wants for their Christmas present? Socks of course! They have been loved all year round, time to treat them to them. Did you know that socks are one of the most requested gifts on Dutch wish lists?

9. World Cup football or other sports tournament

Forget Wuppies, vuvuzelas or other trinkets that disappear in the trash after the tournament. Give your staff or customers socks with a Dutch touch. Perfect for the World Cup or European Championship in football, the Olympic Games or Formula 1. During the Tour de France, cycling socks are also very popular.

10. Birthdays / Welcome gift

What do you give your staff as a gift on birthdays? Or when a new employee arrives? Socks are a unisex gift that everyone appreciates. Suitable for all sizes (38-46), so you’re always covered. Make it a complete sock package with a stylish gift box and label.
