Tupac Stance Socks…2017 Is Already Winning!

They had us at Tupac. We almost made this a Get Your Man Right feature, but because we seriously want a pair too we re-thought things (HaHa). These socks are already making 2017 leaps and bounds better than 2016. We are ready to do hard fashion time, Tupac Stance Socks… leggo!

Tupac Stance Socks…2017 Is Already Winning

Stance Socks continues to raise their bar when it comes to design. After the Rihanna collaboration and Star Wars collection we didn’t think things could get anymore epic. We are glad to say that we were fabulously wrong. Stance just leveled up and are about to majorly cash in.

Why socks with Tupac Shakur’s likeness? Stance answers, “In the 1990s’ [rapper] Tupac Shakur was one of the most dynamic and influential hip hop stars of our generation. [Tupac] Shakur will always be remembered for his gritty, yet poetic lyricsand  his outspoken views on the system. With the support of photographer Mike Miller Stance Anthem presents 2pac for Anthem Legends.”

Bomb. So far not much press has emerged regarding the Tupac Stance Socks, however, SM is quickly changing that landscape. First images of the socks are spreading like wildfire across all platforms. Moreover, its a design that is quite unisex. We have seen both male and females have a high desire to claim these bad boys. Here are a few of the expressions we have seen in the past 24 hours:

“NEED NEED NEED!”

“Thug life.”

“Lol I never thought you guys [Stance] would cross that bridge… you have officially proven me wrong and now I will go buy a pair.”

“Sweet!!”

“I need your shoe size! Cuz you need these!”

“TAKE MA MONEY!!!”

“Them boas cold.”

“Another reason why we love stance socks.”

“2sock Shakur.”

“Gonna cop em.”

“You know I’m getting these ASAP!!! Lol.”

Tupac Stance Socks Cop Them

Many share the same sentiments as us. Also, that 2sock Shakur left us deceased and won the Internet. So let’s talk price ladies and gents. The Tupac Stance Socks retail for only $20! Get free shipping in the U.S. on orders over $25. Therefore, get you man and yourself a pair and enjoy the sweet reward of waving the shipping fee.

The socks come in two sizes so far, medium as well as large. Sucks for those of us with smaller feet but that’s just how the cookie crumbles. Cop yours now by going here.

Fun Fact: Did you Stance also sells for The Hot boyz and Juvenile? He’s still taking ova for the 99 and 2000!

Fashionable Mention: Stance Star Wars Collection

Fashionable Mention Stance Star Wars Collection

Once in a lifetime a sock comes along with the epicness of the Egyptain pyramids, gravity and world peace rolled all into one. That sock of this generation comes via Stance, the company behind superstar Rihanna’s graphic and furry sock gems (more on that later). Just in time for the holiday season Stance has released their Star Wars box set which includes 12 characters from the world renown films.

As if that wasn’t cool enough each set also comes with one bonus secret character… nerd achievement unlocked! These amazing socks include characters: Luke Skywalksr, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Darth Vader, C3PO, R2D2, Chewbacca and the Jedi master himself, Yoda.

Besides, socks themselves Stance has put together one stunning website to market them. We had heard through the grapevine that you use ‘the Force’ in order to navigate the site. That was literally all the ammunition we needed to hear in order to develop a strong desire to go check it out (LOL). As soon as you navigate to www.theuncommonforce.com you are asked to tap the screen to begin and that’s when the magic happens. We won’t ruin it for ya, so instead of spoilers we just highly recommend using a smartphone if you want to give it a try. So go have some fun Jedis as well as Siths and don’t forget to pick up a pair of socks in time for the Star Wars film that hits theaters December 18th.

Rihanna Wants You to Upgrade Your Sock Game With Stance

Rihanna Wants You to Upgrade Your Sock Game With Stance

Our favorite model/singer of all time has a new fashion venture that is just simply cool. How many celebrities out there are choosing to endorse socks? Better yet, how many could lend one’s name to a sock brand and make them look like the must-have accessory of the season? We have to say it, but most likely only Rihanna!

Just days ago RiRi released an attention grabbing music video for her music chart hit BBHMM that had everyone talking. Now the trendy, sassy star is the newest face aka Punk and Poet for Stance socks and the brand couldn’t be happier to have her on board. The Vice President of the women’s division of Stance, Candy Harris spilled the beans on why Rihanna was their obvious choice. She said,

“She’s one of the few women in fashion whose style can go from street to couture in the blink of an eye.”

Yeah, just think back on any look by Rihanna whether on a red carpet or on the streets of any another country and it is clear that she just gets “It.” Rihanna oozes a fashion and style appeal that makes even a pink dress that looks like a cupcake seem like the perfect prom dress.However, even though she is one of the few that can get away with wearing a paper sack… socks? Harris revealed,

“I know a lot of people are probably saying ‘Why socks? And that’s really the beauty of it, and that’s why Rihanna’s perfect, because she’s constantly innovating and looking to see what’s next. Socks are not really a trend; they’re a fashion staple.”

After that statement, it does make you have an Aha moment doesn’t it? Think about it, when is the last time someone said, “Oh you are wearing socks? Girl that was so two seasons ago!” We are sure you would be hard pressed to think of a conversation that went like that. Nevertheless, that proves the point that socks are not swayed by time, trends or any other fashion movement. They never go out of style, everyone wears them and they are really an untapped market.

While numerous celebrities are sticking to fragrances, typical fashion lines and hair extensions Rihanna has once again emerged as a true out of the box fashion thinker. For the Murder Rih Wrote (yeah, that’s sock collection name and we love the pun) ad campaign Rihanna seems to mix retro with modern chic due the styling of her hair as well as makeup and the edgy display and vibe of the socks. So then, what is the inspiration behind Rihanna’s first design of socks for Stance? Stance mentioned on their Instagram that,

“Every bad girl knows $$ makes the world go round, @badgalriri‘s first ever collab sock pays tribute to those who know how to hustle as hard as she does.”

Therefore, all the boss ladies of the world unite because we are getting some recognition! Over the past decade Rihanna has proven that hard work and dedication does get you places; especially if you are willing to take a Stance for what you truly believe in.

Fashion Notes: For the past few years runway models have been spotted coming the catwalk with socks and heels. As during those shows, Rihanna’s ad shows that the look doesn’t just have to remain in elementary school. Socks and heels can look just as sexy with the right attitude and vibes. Would you wear it?
