It’s in an inoffensive but millennial-friendly shade of pastel blue (aka the unpopular sibling of Rose Quartz), it has a pun on it (girls after all, just want to have puns…and equal opportunity rights) and if the shrimp embroidery isn’t the cutest thing ever, we don’t know what is.

To anybody who isn’t in the know, these are uh…socks…with cute fishes on them? But to you, an ailurophile who loves music, these are the fish illustrations from The Beatles’s Yellow Submarine. Either way, you can see how this pair is a pleaser to both audiences.

It might take you a while to realise what the graphics are on these socks: Are they from an indie music album cover? Are they just randomly laid out to resemble “art”? Either way if you manage to figure them out, it’s the perfect pop of colour if you’re wearing darker colours on top.

These are cool, aka the socks you might not want to wear around older folks who don’t understand “millennial language”. They’re speckled aka glittery, have the classic Tinder-quote-from-a-random-stranger that makes you giggle bout it with your girlfriends, and…Ramen, everybody loves Ramen!

Before the wave of essential oils, every grandma purported Hammer oil as a cure-all for any illness or ailment. Although a nice gesture, we’d recommend you just urh, go to a proper doctor today. But if you ever need a gift for your foreigner friends that isn’t a cliché pin or keychain, they’re not going to complain about these.

Look past the ‘60s print of these socks and realise how fun they’re going to make you look. Under a dark suit, you’re that fun colleague whom everybody wants to drink with. With jeans and sneakers, you’re that laidback chick who loves to live life. With a dress and a pair of sandals, you’re old-school cool.

You want to try out something leopard print but a jacket, dress, or anything that covers too much of your body in that print freaks you out. Enter the leopard print socks: They’re functional and easy enough for you to incorporate into your wardrobe. Upgrade to a scarf next once you’re comfortable — you’re welcome.

Nobody reaalllyyyy needs to know you bought this pair of funky geometric socks online (and there are many a funky print). They’re going to assume you bought it in a cool museum store because “wow, those geometric patterns!”. And that’s not a bad thing.

If you haven’t noticed by now, Mickey is everywhere, on clothes, jewellery, watches, bags, etc. But maybe it’s time for his girlfriend (or wife? Or soulmate? What are they exactly???) Minnie to take the spotlight: Printed at least 30 times on a pair of socks you might just want to wear under boots to keep your feet warm and comfy.

What else is extreme besides the words on these socks? The price (You get two pairs after all), the fluorescent neon colours (how often do you find socks that aren’t pastel?), and how they’re gonna look popping out against the everyday white sneaker.
