Hi, it’s John and Mark.
We haven’t gone anywhere.
After nine wonderful years of shipping socks around the world, creating meaningful jobs, and spreading happiness, we’ve decided to pause our direct-to-consumer online store.
This pause is intentional.
We’re taking time to reflect on everything we’ve learned, streamline what worked best, and rebuild the store so we can be stronger, more focused, and even more joyful. When we return in 2026, it will be with an updated version of John’s Crazy Socks, rooted in the same mission we’ve always had: spreading happiness and showing what people with differing abilities can do.
In the meantime:
Most importantly, John’s Crazy Socks is not closing.
We’re building what comes next.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
We can’t wait to share what’s ahead.

My knowledge of the video game world may be limited but I’d venture to guess that these Video Game Socks are, and will remain, very popular. I have it on good authority that there are at least two billion video gamers out there, a population known as the gamerati. No, don’t try to find it in a dictionary, just pick up a gaming magazine. That’s two billion folks pulling socks on every day. How many would be proud to wear these bold Video Game Socks?
We know that the boundaries between the video game world and ours are becoming increasingly thin as the gamerati’s interaction increases to new levels. A game may be sending text messages and Xbox characters will share socially, as if they're humans. They just won’t be able to wear our socks.
Gaming is destined to become the most popular form of entertainment, bigger than movies or music! What a future for Video Game Socks!
Now that we’ve glimpsed the future, I’m remembering that big brown Commodore 64. We always plugged the joystick into port 2 for some reason. And Pac Man’s frenetic activity, navigating mazes, constantly gobbling dots. Sort of like me in college, where the dots were No Doze tablets. Pac-Man has reinvented itself for today’s audiences, still one of the best arcade-style games.
