Socks With a Mission – Mitscoots Socks

Some may read the title of this post and think I’m crazy for making a whole post about socks. Keep reading to the end of this post, and I promise you’ll be hooked on these socks as well once you hear the story behind these cozy things and see just how wonderful they are!

I’m super picky about my socks. They need to be the right thickness and sit just perfectly on my leg or ankle. If they don’t feel just perfect, I’m not buying them. I wear tennis shoes a lot, so the right pair of socks makes such a huge difference!

I first heard about Mitscoots on Instagram {I know, you’re rolling your eyes because lately all I’ve talked about are brands I’ve found on Instagram} I was in the process of trying to find new athletic socks and ran across their Instagram account. I dug a little deeper and found out that they were an organization that gives back, and you all know my passion for companies like that.

WHILE VOLUNTEERING ALONG THE STREETS OF AUSTIN, TEXAS CIRCA 2008, WE DISCOVERED THAT RIGHT AFTER FOOD AND WATER, THERE WAS NO GREATER REQUEST AMONG THE LESS FORTUNATE THAN FOR A CLEAN PAIR OF SOCKS.

Just like socks make me feel cozy, safe, comfortable, I’m sure it does for those who are on the streets. Now, why hasn’t this entered my brain before? It totally makes sense, and when I found Mitscoots, I was so excited to see a company that cared for the less fortunate right here in America by providing such an important need.

Check out the story behind Mitscoots and what their mission is:

SO, FOR EVERY PAIR PURCHASED, WE GIVE AN EQUAL QUALITY PAIR OF SOCKS TO SOMEONE IN NEED AND TAKE PRIDE IN EMPLOYING THOSE LESS FORTUNATE TO GET EACH AND EVERY PAIR OF OUR SOCKS PACKAGED UP AND READY TO GO. MITSCOOTS ARE SOCKS WITH A MISSION: GET + GIVE + EMPLOY.

Miscoots sent me 3 pairs to try out. Two pairs of The Ginny socks and a pair of the Performance socks. They are all 100% American made and there is a story behind each pair of socks.

The Ginny – named for a maker and friend Ginny, this style is a classic with fun. Having been behind every pair we’ve ever made, Ginny is a part of our team through and through. For being the eye on whats going to be a hit and for making all our little sock dreams come true, this style is for Ginny. Bright and Bold. The Mitscoots PolkaDot pattern is part of our “Pattern of Giving”. Crafted with our signature arch support, seamless toe construction, color and style, this sock is where it’s at for showing that you know what it means to do more with your socks.

The Margaret Performance Socks – Named for our friend Margaret, one of the most serious runners we know. She is a diehard supporter of what we are doing and one of the best product testers for long distance running. We couldn’t have made this performance style without her. This style is for Margaret. This is the most advanced sock we have ever made. Marathon, Tri, or Bike, this moisture wicking beast can handle whatever you can throw at it.

Mitscoots socks are the item that would make a great gift for birthday or Christmas or just an “anytime” gift. The story behind Mitscoots makes me want to purchase all my socks from them. It’s just that good.
