Frequently asked questions
Everything worth knowing about hipster socks — fit, fabric, care, and gifting.
The Hipster Socks collection leans into smart, offbeat novelty prints, including animals in glasses, mustache patterns, retro TV references, tattoo-flash art, plaid and argyle, bandages, sunglasses, and dry-humor word designs. It also includes recognizable characters such as SpongeBob and Patrick in a hipster-inspired look.
Animal designs are a major part of the collection. Choices include llamas, giraffes, and dogs, with several animals wearing glasses for the collection's bookish, slightly absurd feel. There are also safari- and pet-themed options alongside non-animal patterns such as tattoo art and mustaches.
Traditional Tats and Tattoo Snake are the clearest tattoo-inspired choices, drawing on classic tattoo-flash imagery. Retro TV, Buffalo Plaid, Argyle Mustache, and the Einstein-themed Relatively Cool socks offer different takes on vintage, nerdy, or throwback style without using the same motif.
Crew socks are the main style in the Hipster Socks collection, with 18 of the 24 designs in crew length. The assortment also includes knee-high socks, ankle socks, a no-show style, and a liner sock, so shoppers can choose a cut that works with boots, sneakers, or lower-profile shoes.
The collection includes men's, women's, and unisex sock options, plus one kids' style. Most adult crew socks are one-size stretch and generally fit roughly US men's 7 to 12.5 or women's 5 to 10.5, but the intended fit and size details for each design are listed on its product page.
A pair with a recognizable visual joke is a strong choice for someone with dry humor, such as animals in glasses, Argyle Mustache, Retro TV, tattoo-inspired socks, or the avocado-toast design. The Dogs In Glasses 6-Pack also works well as a multi-pair gift. Sockologie can ship eligible orders directly to the recipient.
