Custom Sock Manufacturing
Share
A story about how Shaan Puri created his own custom socks after being dissatisfied with existing options.
"I threw all my socks away when we got acquired. I asked what is the highest quality sock you can find. The answer I got at that time was Bombas socks, but now I actually have custom socks. I went to a manufacturer and said 'I want a sock like this,' and now I have like 100-200 pairs of custom manufactured socks from a factory I found off Alibaba.
I like wearing crew socks, like calf-length socks, but if you wear the Nike compression ones, they're too tight all the time. The Gains ones are kind of good but they're pretty basic. So I made my own hybrid."
