Are you prepared for a sporty 2017?

Gym memberships are up and thousands of people across the UK are taking part in Park Runs every weekend.

In order to fully embrace the "New Year, New You" mantra, people are looking for new clothing, whether it’s vest tops, sports leggings, jogging pants or new trainers. They also want training and sports socks as they need their feet to be dry and comfortable at all times, whether they’re playing 5-a-side on a weeknight with mates or training for a marathon.

Looking to buy wholesale socks? Brands matter

It doesn’t matter if someone is an exercise newbie or not, when it comes to exercise clothing and footwear, they’re often looking to buy the big brands like Playboy, because they want to look good and they want quality. You need to make sure your shop or stall caters for these people, as well as stocking cheaper socks to appeal to those who are less concerned about the logo on the socks and are looking for a bargain instead.

White socks are always going to be your bestsellers but you should also have black, grey and other colours so that you have wider appeal. Trainer socks are popular with all kinds of athletes and even those who prefer to watch sport rather than play it!

If you fail to stock the right kind of socks, you’ll lose trade so to help, here are our recommendations:

Men’s White Crown sports socks – 5 pack

Playboy men’s assorted sports socks –3 pack

The bigger your range, the more chance people will make multiple purchases and remember, socks are popular all year round so you don’t need to worry about timings as much as you would with winter products.
