Foot Problems, Creepers and The Ultimate Sock
It started back when I started working full time as a Physiotherapist. Spending long days on my feet didn't do great things for my feet.
Red, sore, irritated and cracked between my toes.
To add to that, when cranking out longer runs, training for half marathons and mountain races, I'd get blisters on my toes. Like chafe of the foot!
My socks failed me. No matter what I dabbled with, I couldn't win. Certainly not with my sweaty feet and monkey toes.
That's when I discovered toe socks. They immediately helped.
And shockingly, they also felt bloody good! Oh man, you don't know what you are missing sometimes when you stick with the status quo.
That's when, I started designing my own. I wanted a toe sock with softer material that kept my feet feeling dry even longer. Skip forward to late 2021 and the Creepers Merino Toe Sock was released.
The only socks I will ever need. All. Day. Long.
These socks won't cure all your problems, but they'll blow your mind and redefine your idea of how socks should be.

Why Call Them CREEPERS?
It's a common question, and fair enough too!
For a few reasons actually:
Firstly.
It's memorable.
Second.
A lot of people think toe socks look a bit creepy, so we're embracing that.
"Jeeper Creepers, look at them socks!"
Calling our socks Creepers is like saying "Sure, toe socks are different, lets get past that and feel all the benefits."
It's opening the conversion to say, yea they look different but heck, they're foot shaped and anatomically correct performance socks that feel bloody awesome.
Shouldn't this be the "regular" shape of socks?
