This weekend we have two terrific outdoor events we’re participating in, The Oregon Humane Society’s Doggie Dash and the Luna Foundation’s Whiskey Fest NW.
The Doggie Dash is the annual fundraiser for the Oregon Humane Society, whom every year rescues a variety of animals and places them in good homes. As some of our fans may know, we have several dogs in our offices here in Portland, and just as many folks in the office who love our furry pals. The Doggie Dash will take place on Saturday May 11th down at the Tom McCall Waterfront Park in Portland; those of you in the Portland area who might want to come down and join the dash. For those of you not in the Portland area, you can still help us meet our Sock Dreams team goal by clicking here and registering for the Sock Dreams team.
Additionally, on Saturday May 11th, the Luna Foundation will be holding Whiskey Fest NW to benefit CASA of Multnomah and Washington Counties. Whiskey Fest will be held at NW 11th and Northrup in the heart of Portland’s Pearl District, where several of the top whiskey makers will be sampling out their best to raise money for children’s advocacy in Portland. We have been asked to vend and represent Sock Dreams by bringing whiskey themed socks, as well as our Sock Dreams brands and our smiling faces. Tickets are going fast, but are still available for this event on the Whiskey Fest NW web site.
Have a great weekend, we hope the sun is shining where you are!!!
Last father’s day we offered some dashing styles for your dads, and our men’s and larger feet sections are always growing (of course, if your father’s feet are US men’s shoe size 8 or less, they’ve got their pick of just about everything we carry!).
Since this past mother’s day we talked about some tights options for new mothers, we figured we’d turn the spotlight of styles to new dads. Because there is one thing cuter than how tiny baby socks are (especially when compared to larger-footed midcalves) and it’s perfectly coordinated babies and poppas.
• Gregorio Wool Bootsock •
• Nuova Baby Ribbed Wool Socks •
• Cesare Cashmere Blend Dot Socks •
• Dottie Polka Dot Baby Socks •
• Franco Wool Boucle Stripe Midcalf •
• B.Ella Baby Teddy Booties •
• Leonardo Argyle Midcalf •
• Argyle Baby Booties •
And all of these larger-footed midcalves are available in smaller sizes too, just check the Additional Info on their product pages for the link!
Are you picking up any socks for dads, new and old?
There’s something about baby socks that is unavoidably adorable. They’re just so tiny! Especially when you pair them with grown up styles. A couple of our suppliers carry baby socks that match crews and midcalves sized for grownups, others have styles that pair up hilariously. This time of year can be terribly hectic, so let’s just sit back, look at the teeny socks and smile.
What about a perfect preppy pairing of argyles for each sized foot in a new family?
• Leonardo Argyle Midcalf •
• Arygle Baby Booties •
• Carlino Argyle Crew •
Need something quirkier? Space dye to the rescue!
• Space Dye Terry Shortie •
• Space Dye Terry Baby Booties •

More cozy wool options and a few that will bring a smile to your face after the jump!
