Benefits Of Merino Wool Socks
In case you missed it, we now have wool socks and are all totally obsessed! We flocked to the warehouse like a herd of sheep when they arrived to marvel at their perfection. Little did we know, these merino wool socks have a bunch of hidden benefits. I’d like to share these benefits with you so you can make a more concise choice in your wool sock buying...
The First Chimpanzee In Space
If you haven't heard, we recently released what may be my new favorite sock design ever: Animals & Adam in Space Helmets!
Don't worry, the actual socks only feature Animals in Space Helmets. But, these socks got me wondering… has a chimp, a giraffe, or Adam ever been to space before...
Sock Redesigns 👩🎨🧦🤩
This has been a very exciting year so far for all of us at Friday Sock Co. - we’re growing as a company and as individuals! We’ve done many exciting things and this growth has allowed us to travel again to the factories in Italy where our socks are made, hire more awesome people, hold our first annual team summit, and partner with Canadian Down Syndrome Society to create a truly one-of-a-kind mismatched sock. You may be asking yourself what more could we possibly accomplish before winter rolls around? The answer, multiple sock redesigns.
Factory visits, spaghetti and new products 👀🍝🇮🇹
There's no denying the last two years have been...*interesting* to say the very least. Does anybody else feel like it's still 2020?! Needless to say- our Friday Sock Co. owner, Adam Thompson was finally able to make it back to the land of fashion and food after a two year travel hiatus.
The History of Green Beer
While it might not be at the forefront of your mind as the bartender pours you another fermented wheat beverage this St.Patrick’s Day, here at Friday we like to ask questions. So why green beer?
Is anything as soft as our new Ultra Comfort Collection socks?
We've just released our softest, comfiest, coziest socks yet! Our new Ultra Comfort Collection features a soft terry cotton footbed and an arch support that feels like a warm hug around your footsies. They're so soft and comfortable that it got us to thinking... What are some other things that might compare? Welcome to our list of 5 things that are almost as soft as our Ultra Comfort Collection.
We just released a new GOTS Organic Collection in adult sizes!
We've always used OEKO TEX® Standard 100 Cotton which ensures the cotton is manufactured in a sustainable and socially responsible way (it's also tested for harmful materials). Last year we also made a recycled cotton collection (supply chain issues made it impossible this year to make more of these recycled cotton socks). So, it was the perfect time for us to further explore using organic cotton!
Organic Cotton Kid's Socks
Children's skin is more sensitive than adults and can be prone to irritation. That's why it's extra important for their clothing to be super soft and free from any harsh substances. Because of this, we decided to transition our kids and baby collections to Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) Certified Organic Egyptian Cotton.
The History of Bacon and Eggs
We're all familiar with the iconic breakfast duo, in fact the breakfast besties are so popular that bacon and eggs is our best selling sock design! But where did it all start? When did bacon and eggs become the quintessential breakfast food?
