Organised by Sock It to Me, the Design-A-Sock Contest 2021 invites fans and artists around the world to submit unique sock designs, and maybe win the opportunity to see it produced.

Last year, even amidst a global pandemic, entries were received from over 90 countries, with participants ranging in age from 5 to 75. This year, the company hopes to have an even better turnout with creative entries representing ideas from all over the world.

Maximum of 5 original entries per person, and maximum 6 colours per design. Any socks produced, are created with the artist’s permission first. If they like a design that doesn’t win, they’ll contact you to see if you are interested before they move forward with production.

There is no entry fee.

Eligibility

Open to people 18 and older. Parents and legal guardians of children under 18 also may submit designs created by their children.

Prize

The winner will receive a 2,000 USD cash prize and their sock may be produced in one of the company’s future product lines. Second place will win a prize of 1,000 USD and third place will receive 650 USD.
