When I’m not working, going to school, or doing homework, I love to cook, craft, make terrible jokes, and drink astonishing amounts of coffee.
I really wanted to create a sock that I would want to wear, and that spoke to a Portland mentality. I was definitely inspired by the city’s bike culture when I designed “Toe-tal Recall.” Who doesn’t want to feel like a cyborg while pedaling to work? Before the contest, I owned 1 pair of Sock it to Me socks (Black and White Bikes), and wore them on the first, and last day of the contest for good luck. I guess they worked!
