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.
