Ooohyeah! Socks: Anticipation Builds for Exciting Collaboration with Japanese Manga – Exclusive Interview at MAGIC Las Vegas 2024

Socks, once relegated to the realm of basic undergarments, have now transcended their functional purpose to become cherished souvenirs. Ooohyeah! Socks, represented by Xochitl Avila, the creative director, has spearheaded this trend with their innovative designs. Specializing in novelty socks, fashion socks, and fun slippers, Ooohyeah! Socks has carved a niche in the market, offering a wide range of options for customers aged 5 to 60. 

The journey of Ooohyeah! Socks began in 2015 through a collaboration with the owner, who possessed expertise in sock manufacturing. What started as a small collection of fun socks has now evolved into a diverse range of products, including fashion-forward designs under the collection “Sock it Up” and lifestyle-oriented offerings. Each collection reflects a distinct aesthetic, catering to different demographics and preferences. Avila mentioned that “Sock it Up” has been her favorite collection of all time because it incorporates fashion and novelty. With a touch of Bohemian style and bamboo material, this collection offers more structure to play around with. The collection also features a variety of materials including mercerized, sheer, and wool; overall, it’s playful footwear that can help enhance your lifestyle looks.

As for their retail presence, Ooohyeah! Socks has embraced the digital era, leveraging online platforms to reach a broader audience. While the brand primarily focuses on wholesale distribution, with products available in over 3,000 stores worldwide, its online retail channel has further expanded its reach. 

One of the highlights of Ooohyeah! Socks’ journey is their participation in trade shows like MAGIC, Barcats, Atlanta Market, Dallas Market, Vegas Market, and other small individual shows. With over a decade of experience in the industry, the brand recognizes the significance of such events in fostering connections, showcasing new products, and staying abreast of industry trends. MAGIC serves as a platform for Ooohyeah! Socks to engage with existing customers, forge new partnerships, and gain insights into emerging market demands.

Looking ahead, Ooohyeah! Socks is poised for continued growth and innovation. With exciting collaborations on the horizon, including ventures into manga and Korean animation-inspired designs, the brand remains committed to pushing the boundaries of creativity. Despite the inevitable challenges of production and logistics, Ooohyeah! Socks’ dedication to quality and customer satisfaction ensures that their journey in the fashion industry will be marked by success and continued expansion.

During our conversation, I couldn’t help but ask Avila about Ooohyeah! Socks’ collaboration with Japanese animation. With a gleam in her eye, she responded with a smile, teasing, “It’s going to be a surprise!”
