July 23, 2017DigitalLeave a comment

Sock Fancy and Sock Panda are two of the more well known subscription sock websites. In this post, we compare the two exciting businesses on a variety of metrics, including price, quality, customer reviews, and customization. Our goal is to help you choose the sock of the month club that is right for you!

vs.

1. Pricing
Sock Fancy has three pricing options, based on the number of pairs of socks you want each month. For 1 pair of socks, its $11 per month. For 2 pairs of socks, its $19/month. And for $6 pairs of socks (quite extreme!) its $57 per month. You can pay monthly, or pay all up front and receive 1 month free if you pay for 12 months upfront. Shipping is always free.

On the other hand, Sock Panda keeps it simple and sends you 1 new pair of socks each month for $12/month. You can save money by paying upfront for six months ($11/mo) or a year ($10/mo). Shipping is always free.

2. Quality
Sock Fancy sells its own brand of socks, which are designed in-house by their Atlanta design team. They are “high quality cotton blends” made using a 200-count needle machine. Sock Fancy socks are all “fun” socks — so the designs and color patterns are sure to upgrade your style game.

Sock Panda also delivers on the fun and whimsical theme with their 85% Peruvian cotton socks. Although Sock Panda doesn’t appear to have an in-house design team, they do promise to deliver a strong variety of patterns ranging from the more fun and colorful to the subtle.

3. Customization
When you sign up for Sock Fancy, you get the option of customizing the size — based on whether the socks are for him or her (or both). Sock Panda offers a bit more flexibility, since you can get men’s socks, women’s socks, “Tween” Socks, or kids socks. Both sock of the month programs allow you to give as a gift. Sock Panda does have a custom sock program, designed more for corporate customers who want their own logo or design of the socks.

4. Customer Reviews
On TrustPilot, Sock Fancy receives an average rating of 6.8 out of 10 from 123 reviews. Although not available on TrustPilot, Sock Panda receives a glowing review of their July socks on HelloSubscription.com.

We favor Sock Fancy’s reviews, since they have made the investment to setup TrustPilot which is a sign that they care about their customers and providing transparent customer feedback.

There you go — we hope this is helpful guidance when evaluating Sock Fancy vs. Sock Panda for a sock of the month subscription!

December 26, 2015Root Bizzle2 Comments

Sock Fancy is a sock subscription site that ships you a new pair of socks every month. We’ve previously listed Sock Fancy as one of the 4 most popular subscription sock clubs. Over the holiday week, we’ve been combing instagram to find actual Sock Fancy customers showing off their new pairs. And here’s our list of our 5 favorite fancy pairs of socks from Sock Fancy.

1. 3-D Blue and Black and White Men’s Dress Socks
This pair had tons of likes on Instagram, and we know why. The classic colors for menswear are white, black, and blue. Sock Fancy took this to a new level by combining the colors into a trippy, 3-D looking pair of socks that go great with your gray suit and black shoes.

2. Yellow and Orange Men’s Fun Socks
Looking for something to add to your weekend wardrobe for color and flare? We loved this pair of socks for its ability to light up a dull brown set of pants. These socks make it look like your feet are on fire.

3. Camo Fun Color Combo Socks
Camouflage can be a tough pattern to mix into your routine – especially if its traditional camouflage colors of green and black. However, Sock Fancy has twisted the traditional Camo Blend with a pair of Camo Fun Socks that are blue, red, white, and black – which make any ordinary shoes really stick out.

4. Fun Holiday Socks
Sweaters are infamous for making appearances at Ugly Sweater Parties. But now you can bring your sock game to your holiday party as well. We loved these holiday themed socks from Sock Fancy.

5. Summer Beach Socks
Who said you can’t wear socks on the beach? Sock Fancy has got you covered with this design. You can imagine the nice pairing of a Hawaiian shirt, walking around in the sand… or not. But, kick your feet up, grab a cold one, and enjoy the view of these cool beach socks.
