Someone point me in the direction of Skater socks

My DNeice wants skater socks for her birthday. She lives abroad and has quite a sheltered life, lives rurally . She has a skate board, but there's not really anywhere to for hanging around skating, so she does know what brands. She's 13 so I expect adult sizes needed. Can someone point me in the direction of something please ? I have no idea

Skate socks are these longish (above the ankle) ones, usually with bold patterns:

www.twoseasons.co.uk/collections/mens-socks

As with all things skateboard-related, they are unfortunately mostly aimed towards men, so defintely go for the smaller sizes for a 13-year old girl.

Oh, and avoid the numerous pot-leaf motifs!

Stance are a particularly popular brand:

DD skateboards and I got her socks for Christmas from Pride:

She got the Sky Brown ones - some of the money goes to charity - and a plain rainbow pair. Really good quality socks.
