Definitely eye catching, Stance's line of high socks befits the taste of more style conscious individuals who make use of their everyday looks to express their individuality. The brand has long been favored by style risk takers all over the globe - who are open to pushing the boundaries of style with pieces that aren't the norm.

As such, the brand aims to redefine the way people look at socks, and wants people to start dressing from the feet up. Rather than just seeing it as a typical undergarment, Stance wants people to see it as a statement accessory and eventually, an integral piece within the local fashion scene.
