They sell themselves, even with a queue at the till.
In December there is never time to explain each product to each customer. With our socks, you do not have to:
- sales are self-service: the elegant wooden display shows every letter side by side (with the spare stock);
- the POP materials next to the display show customers how to make up their pair;
- customers make up their pair on their own. They pick one jar for the first name and one for the surname, and bring them to the till. Each jar holds a single sock with one initial;
- the socks come in one size: no size to ask about, no size out of stock;
- all you do is reorder the letters when they run low, even from your phone.
New customers in your shop.
You know it better than I do: today every new customer who walks through the door is worth gold.
Some shops I work with have seen people they had never met walk in solely for our socks.
Those customers had seen them on a friend, or had received them as a gift.
And where possible, we give exclusive rights in an area to one shop only. Where there is an exclusive, anyone in that area who looks for our socks in a shop finds only yours.
They never go on sale.
How many times has a customer tried something in your shop, then bought it cheaper online?
Individual Socks never holds sales and has no outlet. Online, you can only buy our socks on our official channels.
A customer who buys them from you in December will not find them at half price in January. The price you display is the price you take.
Starting out is simple, with no complications.
Every new brand takes up space on the shelf and ties up capital. And there is always the fear that it will sit unsold at the end of the season.
That is why I suggest a simple start. It costs you less than a dinner for two in Milan.
I will tell you how it works myself.
Picture your shop in December.

Customers looking for all the initials they need for their gifts.
And you ringing up sales without having to explain a thing.
Frequently asked questions
How do you sell a personalised product in a shop?
We hand-pack each sock on its own in a recyclable PET jar with an aluminium lid. There is no ready-made pair: customers choose two jars with the initials they want and make up their pair.
How are the socks displayed?
On a wooden tabletop display of 30 × 25 × 35 cm, made to sit next to the till. Every letter is in view, and behind each jar sits its spare stock with the same letter. For other spaces we also have counter and floor displays.
I am short on time: how much work does it take to sell them?
Almost none, because sales are self-service. The sloping shelves keep the letters at the front. The POP materials show people wearing the socks and tell customers how to buy them.
If one letter runs out, can I restock only that one?
Yes. On the B2B portal you order from your phone, in front of the display, only the letters you need. We ship the restock within one working day; delivery then depends on the courier.
What is the retail price?
The retail price starts at €25 a pair for stretch cotton. Superlight lisle cotton is €29, and Cashmere Blend is €39.
Do you also sell them online?
Yes, but without competing with you. Individual Socks never runs sales or online promotions. And where possible, we give exclusive rights in an area to one shop only.
I already stock other socks: why these too?
Because you are not buying one more sock brand: you are buying a personalised gift idea, ready to buy. From €25 it is a gift anyone can afford, and it brings new customers into your shop who saw them on a friend.
What do I do with unsold socks at the end of the season?
Most of our styles run all year, and shops restock them every season. For seasonal patterns we have a dedicated solution: I will tell you about it myself.
Where are your socks already sold?
In men’s and women’s clothing boutiques, design shops and concept stores. We pick each shop one by one.
Why should I trust you?
Our design and model of socks with initials are on record at the Italian Patent and Trademark Office. In Italian it is the Ufficio Italiano Brevetti e Marchi, part of the Ministry of Economic Development. And on Trustpilot our customers rate us “Excellent”.
