Friday Sock Co.

In honour of our new CDSS Socks, we put together 21 people, businesses, and resources worth knowing.

Awareness can look like a lot of things. It can be who you follow, where you spend your money, what you listen to and whose experiences you make an effort to understand.

We know there are so so many more great people, businesses, and resources out there.

Chances are, you know someone 🎀

A friend. A mom. A sister. A coworker. Maybe even you.

Breast cancer touches so many lives, which is why this October, we’re using our sock drawer to do a little good.

Our This Did Good (for b***s) Socks support Rethink Breast Cancer , with 50% of net profits from every pair donated to support their work in education, advocacy, resources and community for people impacted by breast cancer.

We’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about what it means when we say we’re a Canadian Company 🇨🇦

So we’re hear to tell you!

Sometimes supporting Canadian means supporting…
Canadian jobs.
Canadian businesses.
Canadian charities.
Canadian communities.

We’re proud to be Canadian-owned. We’re proud of the products we have. And we’re proud to be fully transparent about our business.

Questions? We are happy to answer them below!

Happy National Tree Day 🌲 🌍

Trees do a lot. They help clean our air, support wildlife, protect our water systems and create healthier ecosystems, which feels like a pretty good reason to celebrate them today. 🌱

Our This Did Good (for forests) socks support Tree Canada, helping them plant and nurture trees and grow healthier, greener communities across Canada. Tree Canada / Arbres Canada

Because doing good doesn’t always have to start with something huge. Sometimes, it starts with a small choice, even the socks you put on in the morning. 🧦 🌲

Small choices add up.
