What's up #Sockers!
Get ready to turn up the volume and get your feet in the pit, because we've teamed up with our friends from Germany, the legendary punk-rock band Donots, for an epic limited-edition collaboration!
Do you have lots of friends? Is that like somethin' that's still normal nowadays? We can't really say.
What's true is that there are some friendships that just feel natural, and that’s exactly how it’s been with our dear friends The Donots. We’ve crossed paths so many times over the years, at festivals, backstage hangs, random nights out, that teaming up for a collab just felt right. When a band has been around since 1994, constantly putting out bangers and keeping their energy real, you know you’re dealing with legends, and legends always end up together.
The timing couldn’t have been better. Last year, they invited us to their show in Munich, which was already huge for us, but on top of that, it was their birthday celebration, huge. If you’ve ever been to a Donots gig, you know it’s not just a concert, it’s a full-on Blast. Everyone’s singing, sweating, smiling, Punk incarnate to say the least; and the band is right there in the middle of it all with the crowd. We're proud to have celebrated with them, to have raised a glass, and be a part of that milestone moment.
Somewhere between the laughter, the booze, and the music, the idea of doing something special together turned into reality. The result is our Donots “Since 1994” mid high socks. They carry the band’s history and spirit, designed for fans who have been with them from the early days and/or for those who just discovered them last week. Just like their music, these socks are built to last and made to move, they carry on their spirit.
This isn’t just merch. It’s a piece of that night in Munich, of their journey, and of our friendship. Every time you put them on, you’re stepping into a story that’s been years in the making, music history in sock form
From all of us at American Socks, happy birthday to Donots. Thanks for letting us be part of the ride. And for all of you out there, enjoy these socks that exemplify being real to yourself.
Aigth #Sockers, peace out.
