One size fits most adults. Our socks are a unisex style and because of our proprietary magic blend of *spandex* and unicorn tears, they will fit a US Women's 6 to a US Men's 13.

We are looking into larger production runs for bigger/smaller sizes but we need to make some more money first, honestly. 😅

We know a lot of people want our socks to be bigger or stretchier to fit calves bigger than about a 15” circumference. We hear you. But it’s honestly really complicated. The thing about our designs is they are knitted into the fabric, not printed on, and they use both cotton and nylon thread to make the durable, soft, detailed, vivid images everyone loves. But nylon isn’t as stretchy as cotton. “So just make it bigger,” you might say, but if we make them any bigger, they don’t stay up on anyone. Chelsea has been working on this problem for longer than most of us have worked with her at FootClothes, and that means she’s already tried making things bigger or altering the cuff or all kinds of changes, but where we are right now with our regular crew socks is that they stay up on most people, and because the human calf is wider at the top and gets smaller as you go down toward the foot, if we make things bigger they slide down and bunch up at the ankle. Which is not cool for anyone.

The more intricate or detailed the design, the more nylon thread it requires, and thus only simplistic designs, such as lines or large blocks currently lend themselves to wide calf sizing. Because of this, and because knee-high socks go up above the widest part of the calf so they are more likely to stay up, we created the line Oh Hey, Stripes. This line includes two colors of wide-calf friendly knee-highs that use an entirely new production technique we hadn’t tried before. It doesn’t solve the nylon thread problem, but it has proven to be a popular option. We couldn’t get all the stripe colors in both regular and wide-calf when we launched Oh Hey, Stripes, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t WANT to. We just had to pick somewhere to start.

If you want to support our efforts to make more wide-calf options, the best way is to buy the current ones we have and send us an email to request others. That tells us people are interested and willing to support us putting our money into the project. You can sign up to the wide calf notification list here, and you’ll be notified as soon as we have any new options, even if you don’t sign up for our regular marketing emails.

No. We pride ourselves on working directly with independent artists and supporting real humans making cool stuff.

Ankle socks are both popular and unpopular at the same time because we get this question a lot but then the ankle socks we have don’t sell nearly as well as anything else. With the success of Pastel Goth, where the same design is on both the crew and ankle height of the sock, we’re reconsidering what upcoming launches will have for ankle socks. But we don’t usually launch them in the end of the year, because most of our customers are in the Northern Hemisphere, so it’s winter and people have cold ankles.

The best way to make sure we put out more ankle socks is honestly just to buy the ones we have because we can’t invest in something people don’t buy. We’re a super small company and we like that, because it lets us talk to our customers like real people. But we’re not a giant corporation that can take risks over and over on new product lines that people don’t like. Ankle socks don’t sell as quickly in brick-and-mortar stores which is another factor we have to consider. If you like to buy FootClothes from stores in your area — we have a lot of amazing wholesale partners who stock us around the world! — tell them that! 

Sorry we can't be tied down.
