Our love affair with colorful cotton continues
My husband brought home a pair of Sock Club socks from SXSW a couple of years ago. He's very, very picky about his socks and loved them. I was impressed that they were still in regular rotation as of this last Christmas (2018). So, naturally, I got him a subscription for Christmas. It turns out great minds think alike, and I was very happy when I opened the card he gave me on Christmas morning that had my subscription in it! I love that the socks have personality, they're quirky without being over the top or obnoxious, and they're super soft which my stupidly oversensitive skin really appreciates.
We moved from Austin, TX to Charlotte, NC in August of last year and one of my husband's favorite pairs of socks were ruined by the movers (along with most of our belongings). He contacted Sock Club about it, and got a kind but disappointing reply - they couldn't replace them. We were very surprised when we checked the mail the next week and found a letter from Sock Club to my husband, the letter apologized for not being able to replace his other socks and contained a pair of socks that had a similar pattern and color scheme. That was above and beyond <3 We weren't "members" at that point, it was just a thoughtful, kind gesture that was a much bigger pick-me-up than anyone there could've known.
