3 reasons novelty socks make the best gifts

What if we told you that gift shopping for birthdays, Christmas and other holidays doesn’t have to be stressful? What if it could be ... dare we say ... fun? Mind-blowing, huh?

Our many years in the world of crazy novelty socks have taught us an important fact: Fun socks make awesome presents. Just check out this feedback from a few recent shoppers:

Those comments are all just from the past couple of weeks, and there are so many more. Take it from the thousands of gift shoppers who have come to Goodly before you: They really do make for great presents! 

Still not convinced? Let us break it down for you. Here are the top three reasons novelty socks make awesome gifts:

1. They’re Practical

Everybody needs socks, right? Socks are an undeniably practical, useful gift, and that’s a good feeling for the gift-giver. It’s the worst when you stress out shopping for someone and then you’re not even sure the person will ever use your gift. Not the case with socks! And of course, our socks aren’t just practical — they’re practical with a fun twist!

2. They’re Affordable

Another win for you, the gift-giver! How many fun presents cost an average of $10? Even if you put a few pairs together to make a fun gift bundle, you’re still talking about spending $20 to $40 depending on which styles you choose, and we think that’s a pretty great deal. Heck, you can often find pairs in our sale section marked as low as $4, and you know we frequently have great seasonal discounts! (Sign up for our email newsletter to make sure you don’t miss out.)

We know gift shopping can really add up, particularly around Christmas, and we pride ourselves on helping you spread joy in an affordable way.

3. There’s a Pattern for Everyone

This is the really important one. Novelty socks make a great gift because they are personal. We have hundreds of patterns, and each of those patterns syncs up perfectly with someone out there.

Whether you’re shopping for a music lover, a sarcastic friend with a great sense of humor, a relative who is obsessed with her cats or pretty much anyone else, we’ve got the socks to fit. 

There’s nothing quite as special as finding the perfect pattern for someone. We call it the “go giddy” moment. It’s when you see a style that you just flip out over, a pattern you completely adore. Giving someone the gift of that moment is a wonderful feeling, and so many of our customers report that kind of sock-cess with their gifts!

Now that you’re convinced, we suggest you check out our picks for our best gifts for women and men. And be sure to peruse all of our gift guides! You can also use the handy search bar on our website to find specific patterns for all the loved ones on your shopping list, and don’t forget gift cards! Happy shopping!
