Knock The Socks Off Your Employees With This Latest Gifting Trend

Thinking of sending a swag kit to your work-from-home employees? Add some swagger to your corporate swag arsenal with branded custom socks. Why custom socks you ask?

Here are the top 4 reasons why you should give branded custom socks to employees as company swag:

#1 Always give custom swag that people want to keep and use:

Remember the custom pen that you got at the last trade show (before the pandemic) that you attended?

No?

Well, that’s exactly our point. When you are investing your money in giving out custom gifts, why not give something which people will use and remember. As far as we know, everyone wears socks! Some wear it with sliders or home sneakers or just socks without footwear for the warm fuzzy feeling only socks can give.

And, we can credit Canadian PM Justin Trudeau for the revival of socks as a fashion item. Quirky, colorful socks are on-trend, replacing boring neck-ties.  What better time than to jump on this fashion bandwagon and incorporate your branded custom swag into the everyday lives of your employees?

You can give out branded custom socks to employees as part of your new hire package, as trade-show giveaways, retail it on your company store, as part of corporate giveaways to clients, as part of a work-from-home care package, and as part of a virtual party hamper for your virtual employee events (the new normal).

This Christmas, gift holiday-themed custom socks to your employees, along with other fun gifts. Run a social media campaign, asking your employees to wear your custom socks in the most creative ways they can think of (like a glove, wearing mismatched pairs-the custom one on foot, and another one on the other, wearing outrageous outfits with socks, as a replacement for Santa’s cap, as stockings for Christmas gifts, etc. )

P.S: Don’t give out these ideas, let your team get creative!

Get your employees to take funny pics of themselves wearing the socks and post them on your company intranet or send them to your Social Media Manager. The best and most quirky pictures make it to your official social media pages.

#3 Size doesn’t matter (much) when it comes to branded custom socks:

Of course, socks do come in various sizes. But unlike tees, you don’t need to get accurate measurements from employees on their sock sizes. We offer a standard unisex size that will fit most people. Zero hassles in ordering, maintaining your socks inventory, and distributing them to your employees.

Fun idea:

Take a poll. Ask your employees which sock length they prefer. Options are no show, quarter, crew, and knee-length. Order our standard size socks in the sock length preferred by most in your poll.

#4 You can get super-creative with socks’ designs:
