Now available: Superhero socks - with a memorable background

Translation: machine translated
Let's get serious. The superheroes from the Marvel cosmos have to wear socks, don't they? Rumour has it that this story took place before the Happy Socks landed in our shop.
Spider-Man stands in front of his steamed-up bathroom mirror and yawns heartbreakingly. Saving the world was a bit late again yesterday.
Without his red costume, Peter Parker is just an ordinary bloke with tousled hair and dark circles under his eyes.
«Another day», he mumbles and scratches his head. «Once again solving other people's problems. But the rent is due.» Well, the rent. Peter is two months behind. So this advertising contract with Happy Socks comes in handy.
Spider-Man opens the top drawer of the chest of drawers and there they are. A dozen pairs of socks. And they all have something to do with him.
I wonder if he would have bought them from Galaxus without the advertising contract?
Superhero socks want attention
What Peter doesn't know: Thanks to clever marketing by Happy Socks, he's not the only one immortalised on cotton.
Tony Stark, aka Iron Man, also has his own Happy Socks.
«F.R.I.D.A.Y.», he shouts, «can you explain to me why I'm wearing merchandise of myself?»
«That seems to be an ironic twist to this story, boss», the familiar voice replies dryly.
A few blocks away, Captain America is standing in front of the wardrobe, holding up a pair of socks whose motif clearly has something to do with him. «Somehow, patriotism on your feet is pretty American. But hey: life is a film. So what the hell.»
More or less carelessly, he puts on his socks and is just about to look for his shoes when a loud «We demand more attention!» sounds from the wardrobe.
«Dude, that's rubbish. Socks can't talk.»
«Of course superhero socks can talk. We're with Marvel. And without us, you'd just be a bloke with bare feet.»
The sock thing is spreading
It's not just Spider-Man and Captain America who are yapping with their socks. At the same time, Hulk also has a discussion with his Happy Socks. He has to listen to them say that they are tired of hanging unnoticed from his XXL feet. Without further ado, they threaten to start slipping! However, the threat comes to nothing, as all Happy Socks have added elastane and fit super well.
Thor's socks, on the other hand, are surprisingly peaceful. So he puts his hammer in the corner and gets dressed.
Back to reality
Phew, you've read this far. Respect and thank you.
The Marvel edition socks that you can order from us are not magic clothes, of course. They are simply made of cotton, are washable and should stay beautiful for a long time thanks to the woven-in motifs. But they don't talk to you. But they're fun anyway.
