Normal socks are angled at the big toe, and don’t really look anything like real feet.

That’s actually really unhealthy for feet, especially growing ones: The toes get squeezed together and can even retain this unnatural position permanently.

But the solution seems simple: Why not just make socks that are the same shape as feet?

So we did: Straight at the big toe, in line with your feet, and with plenty of wiggle room for the rest of your toes, too. That’s the idea behind plus12socks.
