SOCKRATES works with you to incorporate your logo and colors into a sock design which you will review and provide feedback on. We both go through this process until we get to the perfect design(s) for the sock and labels that you would like to proceed with.
The sock and labels are finalized together with the final quantity and the shipping date. The invoice is paid and we are now ready to prepare your order for production.
Our designers program your sock design pixel by pixel for production. In Italy we source the yarn and match it to Pantone. The yarn is loaded onto the machines and we are now set to begin.
In Italy we produce a pre-production sample which we review and ensure it lines up to the approved sock.When it adheres to our quality standards we approve the sock for full production.
Socks are woven on the machines. Each pair takes ten minutes to produce. At this point we are ensuring there are no defects and we then we put the toe on in batches of fifty pairs.
After the toe is sewn on we begin to steam and iron the socks to ensure they are client ready. A label (header or band) is then put on as the final packaging and the socks are loaded into shipping boxes and prepped for UPS/DHL pickup.
Boxes are picked up and a tracking number is sent to you to follow the shipment on route to you. You receive them and the socks are ready for you to incorporate into your marketing initiatives!
