Priced per job — design, decoration and quantity all move the number, so we quote it properly rather than guessing.

PADDING WHERE THE SHOE BITES.

If your shoe collar rubs, the fix isn't a thicker sock. It's padding in exactly the right place.

The Ankle Guard Quarter builds a raised cushioned collar around the achilles and ankle bone — the two spots a stiff heel counter digs in — while keeping the rest of the sock thin and breathable. Mesh striping through the guard keeps it from cooking.

OVER-ENGINEERED. ON PURPOSE.

  • ✅ Raised cushioned collar around achilles and ankle bone
  • ✅ Targets exactly where a stiff heel counter rubs
  • ✅ Rest of the sock stays thin and breathable
  • ✅ Mesh striping through the guard for airflow
  • ✅ Contrast heel and toe blocking
  • ✅ For runners breaking in new shoes or racing flats

HOW WE APPLY YOUR DESIGN

Six ways to get artwork onto this base. Most orders use one or two — we’ll tell you which suits your design when we mock it up.

Jacquard knit
Jacquard knitThe pattern is knitted in with multiple yarns, so colour runs all the way through. Nothing sits on the surface to crack, peel or wash out.
Sublimation
SublimationArtwork printed into the fabric with no colour limits and no repeat. The option when a design has photographic detail a knit would flatten.
360 printing
360 printingFull wraparound coverage, edge to edge. Use it when the design has to run right around the sock rather than sit on a panel.
Embroidery
EmbroideryStitched detail with real texture and depth. The best choice for a crest, badge or wordmark you want standing off the sock.
Labels & patches
Labels & patchesWoven labels, rubber patches and custom tags. Branding that sits on the sock rather than in it.
Linked toe
Linked toeA flat closure across the toe with no ridge to rub. A construction detail rather than a decoration, but one players notice.
