Big Issue North, a charitable organization, has announced its partnership with renowned Manchester artist Stanley Chow and sock brand Stand4Socks to release a limited-edition series of festive socks for a good cause.
The exclusive designs, created by Stanley Chow, will not only keep you warm and stylish, but also support individuals in need across the north of England. Every purchase of these socks directly contributes to Big Issue North’s mission to empower people experiencing poverty by providing them with the opportunity to earn an income, achieve stability, and transform their lives.
The collection features two new designs by Stanley Chow, known for his iconic illustrations that have gained international recognition through collaborations with The White Stripes and The New York Times. The designs, a graphic pixel design and a Christmas Elf design, showcase Stanley’s signature style and make each pair a wearable piece of art.
“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to design the socks I’ve always wanted to wear, and to also raise money for a cause that I wholeheartedly support,” said Stanley Chow.
Priced at £12.99 per pair or £29.99 for all three designs, 100% of profits from each sale will go directly to Big Issue North. This means that every purchase will support individuals in the North West, Yorkshire, and the Humber who sell the Big Issue magazine, providing them with the means to earn an income, develop skills, and gain independence.
Stand4Socks, a Manchester-based brand, is known for their high-quality, personalized socks. Their philosophy centers around giving back, and for every pair of charity socks sold, they donate a durable, antibacterial pair of socks to someone experiencing homelessness. Since their inception, Stand4Socks has donated over 150,000 socks, ensuring that comfort and warmth reach those who need it most.
So, by choosing a pair of Big Issue North’s socks, you not only support the organization’s vendors, but also provide warmth to someone experiencing homelessness this winter.
The limited-edition Stanley Chow designs are only available for a limited time, so don’t miss your chance to shop now and support your Big Issue North vendor while helping those in need this Christmas. Click here to view the collection: Big Issue North x Stand4 Socks Collaboration.
