Europe-based company LemonSox is stepping into the crowded sock market with a unique packaging concept. It offers colourful, scented fashion socks packed in tin cans. And while this might not be something completely unprecedented, customers can also choose the scent of the socks. Vanilla, Cinnamon and Orange/Chili are options available.

Darius, a co-founder of LemonSox, says that “there are two ways of treating the idea: you can either just look at scented and canned socks as a bright new funny gift idea for someone with a good sense of humor, or for someone without it. Or, if you are more on the serious side, there is also a practical approach: we have noticed, that there are situations where you want/need to take of your shoes (at a friend’s place, while getting a massage, on a flight, in a long haul bus, you name it) but after a long day you don’t feel comfortable about the freshness of your socks. And that’s where the canned socks come in handy, you just go to the restroom and voila! You’re all set. And the best part is that you can hide your used socks back into the can and bring it home safely, as it comes with additional plastic lid.”

LemonSox claims to have selected the proven composition which is the best for colorful fashion socks. Here are the details:

80% combed cotton.
Combed cotton is considered higher quality and softer than cotton that hasn’t been combed. The yarn is stronger and softer. The combing process also rids the batch of shorter fibers and impurities, which results in a finer, stronger and more compact cotton.

15% polyamide.
Polyamide ensures sweat wicking and water-repelling properties. It has the highest resistance of all textile raw materials and it helps to keep the bright colors. So the socks with the polyamide usually last longer than those without.

5% elastane.
This component is for comfort and elasticity. Elastane fibres can be stretched from four to seven times their length, therefore it ensures the socks stay up, just as you need them to.

The idea of LemonSox™ came from the belief, that it is possible to deliver fashion socks in more interesting and bright way than ever before.
