How Custom Printed Socks Can Benefit Your Business

Custom printing is a great way to stand out from your competitors and also cater to the passions and fashion sense of people in your area.

Socks used to be white, black, or just unicolor with a predetermined size. To match up with the various trends, the idea of custom print on socks has risen. The design on the sock could be the flag of a favorite team in a tournament, or a popular favorite musician's face etc.

And small apparel businesses can use that to their advantage. Learning about what the people in your area like, you can order custom designed socks from us. From comic characters to TV shows, we can do pretty much any print you want. And with our services you can design socks that cater to the hobbies and passion of people in your area.

With custom designs, you can stand out in the super saturated business of apparel. Your customers will have incentive to visit your store when there are hundreds of other competing stores nearby.  

You can order from us depending on what people in your area want. If we don’t have that exact print, we can make it from you. To match the demand of your customers precisely, you can even get a custom sock printer from us.

How Do We Make Custom Printed Socks?

Our digital sock printers are state of the art. The CMYK ink system provides accurate color and the lifting system adjusts the roller height for precise printing. The minimum order quantity is 100 pairs for just digital printing. We have pre-knitted blank socks that we can print on demand. In case you have your own sock styles in mind, you have to order at least 3000 pairs as that is the minimum knitting MOQ. 

After receiving the design from you, we input the command using a computer as our machine is fully digital. One of our technicians installs a pair of white socks on one roller, one on each end. Then he puts the roller in the machine and the printing process begins.

The two print heads print the design on both socks at a time as the roller rotates clockwise slowly. Our machine can print 50 pairs per hour so in case you have an urgent order, we are well capable of delivering in time. Once the printing is complete, one of our workers pulls out the socks from the roller by hand. Take a look at this video to see how the printing phase works. 

Then the socks undergo a heating process. Printed polyester socks look brighter after heating. We have highly advanced heating machines. It takes only 3 minutes to heat 40 socks which we call one cycle. The output is 300 pairs per hour which is enough to support six printing units. The video below demonstrates the complete heating process. 

You can trust us to deliver you the right product. Or you can get a sock printing machine from us to print whatever design you want.
