Created for SOCKSHOP

THIS PRODUCT TEST RECRUITMENT IS NOW CLOSED

We’re recruiting UK-based Mumsnet users with a child aged 1-14 to test SOCKSHOP’s bamboo socks for sensitive feet.

  • Selected testers will receive a pack of SOCKSHOP bamboo socks for one child in their household to test.
  • Testers will be asked to feed back via a thread on Mumsnet and a short survey.
  • All testers who leave their feedback will be entered into a prize draw where one lucky tester will win a £100 voucher for a store of their choice (from a list).

Here’s what SOCKSHOP has to say :

“SOCKSHOP understands that sometimes small feet can be sensitive, and conventional toe seams and sock welts can be bulky and tight, often meaning tears and tantrums when it’s time to get dressed. Lessen the stress of your morning routine with our Kids’ Bamboo Socks with Smooth Toe Seams and Comfort Cuffs, designed to be super soft and comfortable against little feet and toes and much loved by kids and parents alike. A range of colours makes this selection of socks perfect for both school days and for playing at home.”

If you’re interested in taking part, sign up here.

Thanks and good luck!

Done would love my child to try

chilledteacher · 31/10/2021 19:40

Signed up. Sizes seem 'off' though.

MrTumblesSpottyHag · 01/11/2021 00:04

Fingers crossed 🤞🏽 for this. I'd love to find something to make DD1's life easier.

WhereAreWeNow · 01/11/2021 13:22

That's a shame. I'd like to sign up for this but DD is 14 and has size 7 feet (and has done since she was 12). I don't think she's that unusual either. Lots of kids have adult sized feet by age 13/14. Maybe something for Sockshop to consider.

cannotfindanickname · 01/11/2021 22:24

I got half way through the form before finding out my 14 year old doesn't qualify as his 6.5 feet are too big.

Shannith · 01/11/2021 22:29

Done. I've seen these advertised and nearly bought a few times. Would like to see what they are like and if worth buying.

GoofyIsACow · 01/11/2021 22:41

Done 🤞🏻

Seasidemumma77 · 02/11/2021 09:18

Tried to sign up for my 14yr old ds, but sadly his size 9 feet aren't accommodated for

rupert23 · 02/11/2021 17:09

I have signed up but I think the sizing may be wrong as others are saying . My son age 14 has size 7 feet

Triffid1 · 02/11/2021 17:12

Well, I'd take part except.... I've been all over town, including on here, regularly extolling the virtues of these socks for children with sensory issues. It feels a bit rude to ask for the free socks to test. Can I still do the survey and go into the draw??! Grin

Triffid1 · 02/11/2021 17:15

Oh, FYI - the sizing is generous. DS is 10, size 6 shoes, but I still buy him the biggest kids size no problem. And DD has size 13 feet but actually the ones in her size are a big big. She can wear them, but she's perfectly happy with the size down.

Igneo · 09/11/2021 20:15

i’m like triffid, discovered these for my sensitive dd 10 years ago, buy all our socks from here they are the best.

claza93 · 11/11/2021 19:59

Sounds great! My daughter struggles to find socks that are comfy

SmellyOldOwls · 12/11/2021 12:42

Got the samples today! They're so soft I immediately want to buy some for myself Blush

Beurre · 12/11/2021 12:58

Just got the socks. They are fab. So soft and comfortable.

Emus · 12/11/2021 13:08

I also received the socks today and look forward to sharing them with the kids (as there's enough for them both to test)!

They are super soft, I'll be surprised if they don't like them!

ButtonMoonLoon · 12/11/2021 19:12

We received ours today too- what a nice surprise to get 5 pairs.
They’ve been a huge hit already, SO soft and comfortable so we will definitely be ordering more in other colours. ( we received red ones)

Yes i thought we would get one pair! DS immediately put his on and declared them 'soft and cosy!' Ours are blue and school uniform is grey socks and I'm a bit concerned that he'll never wear his school socks again ConfusedGrin
ButtonMoonLoon · 12/11/2021 20:25

They do sell them in grey along with several other colours, and there’s a special offer on them at the moment which is good!

WellTidy · 18/11/2021 13:19

Received the socks for DS today. But he won’t wear them unfortunately as they are a bright shade of pink. All five pairs are the same colour. I don’t know how I can give feedback on socks that he just won’t wear.

Oh thank you. Will definitely be getting some of them.
LookdeepintotheParka · 18/11/2021 17:49

Got the socks last week - they're fab! Have we got the feedback thread yet? Bit worried I haven't had anything since I received them?

Lovelydovey · 19/11/2021 20:22

Is there a feedback thread somewhere? My DS loves these and he hates all clothes, he chooses to wear these above all other socks as they are so comfy!

rupert23 · 20/11/2021 14:47

We got them and they are grey. My son loves them and they are very soft. The size seems OK and fit him well.

ButtonMoonLoon · 21/11/2021 01:24

I haven’t seen a feedback thread yet but I’ve already ordered more of these socks in lots of different colours.
I also ordered some for Christmas presents and so,e velvet soft ones for me and they are sooo soft
