St.Friday Socks has released a collection of socks in collaboration with Uppsala Circus

St.Friday Socks and Uppsala Circus have collected all the circus stereotypes and released a joint collection of socks "Well, you are an artist." The basis for the prints was the drawings of the artist Maria Zaikina.

There are six models in the circus collection. Socks are made in bright colors with cartoon graphics characteristic of St.Friday Socks.

“If you misbehave, I will give you to the circus,” with this phrase, parents often try to scare too active children. At St. Friday Socks, it's not a threat, but salmon-colored socks with a strongman rabbit in striped knee-highs. On the print of the “Circus is power” model, there is also a strongman, the most stereotypical one: with a mustache and a hat. In red socks with an artistic mime, you can do almost anything. The inscription “Well, you are an artist” should explain to others that they have a creative nature in front of them and any actions are art. Or eccentricity. Well, what else to expect from a man in yellow socks with a disheveled nerd who escaped from the circus. The Walking Circus model is the only pair of mismatched socks with miniature clowns in the collection, which illustrates the comical rebuke and the phrase “the circus has left, but the clowns have stayed”. For lovers of puns and double meanings, there are blue socks "My Sock" in the collection.

“The release philosophy is built around the inevitable renewal of the circus as an idea. The new circus is not trained bears, clowns and fairground magicians. And the guys from Uppsala Circus have been proving this with their work for many years. In their performances there is nothing of what is found in the traditional old circuses. What is the best way to fight stereotypes and promote the new? We at St.Friday Socks always do it with humor and irony. That is why stereotypical circus characters were depicted on the socks of the new collection. They were invented by a talented artist Maria Zaikina. She works in theater, feature films, draws cartoons and illustrates books. And now also socks,” said Sergey Tonkov, founder of the St.Friday Socks brand.

Joint collection of St.Friday Socks and Uppsala Circus "Well, you are an artist!" available for order in the St.Friday Socks online store. You can buy each pair separately, two mini-sets or the entire collection at once. Socks are sold for 475 rubles, mini-sets for 1219 rubles, and the full collection costs 2211 rubles. Part of the income will go to support the activities of the non-profit Uppsala Circus.
