Total Basset Case: Keysocks {Giveaway}

Dec 12, 2012

Keysocks {Giveaway}

I have such a treat (and a give away) for you guys today!

I was recently talking with Kait and she was telling me that she ordered Keysocks for her mom for Christmas.
I had NO idea what she was talking about but quickly go to googling and Pinteresting.
One word. Genius.

I continued to peruse the Keysocks website and realized that they are from right here in Cincinnati!
I quickly emailed Shelby, the owner, to get more information and ask if we could chat further.
I knew that these were something that you girls NEEDED to know about. 
And to top it off, they are less than $10.
I think Keysocks are so great and definitely for this time of the year when you want to wear jeans and heels but not freeze to death. 
I have even been wearing mine with boots to keep my feet from getting too hot. 
These socks fit so well and are so comfortable! 
I am in love and have been telling everyone about them!
 From Keysocks:  
KEYSOCKS are for women and girls to wear with flats or high heels when wearing any choice of pant. This sock is the ultimate solution for keeping your feet warm and comfortable without showing you are wearing socks.

I was able to chat with Shelby the other day and ask her a few questions about her amazing product.
 Shelby came up with the (great) idea for Keysocks one day when she was headed to a Bengals game and had a super cute pair of flats she wanted to wear. 
Well she knew she couldn't wear socks with them so she decided to raid her husband's sock drawer and come up with a solution.
She took a pair of his knee high dress socks and cut a hole out of the front to create her 'no show' socks.
Genius.

Shelby then spent months of googling and researching to see if there was anything remotely similar out there.
There wasn't! 
All the while she was thinking, 'why hasn't anyone thought of this?!'
After a year of working with her team and testing out prototypes, Keysocks was born and has been on the market for about 3 months!
 They were recently featured on Real Simple (how cool is that?!) 

Besides the great options they have out right now (black, nude, striped and pink) Shelby told me that they will be coming out with some new colors and fabrics for the summer months.

Shelby has graciously offered to give away a Holiday 6 Pack to one lucky TBC reader!
Just follow the Rafflecopter prompts below.
This give away will be live until next Wednesday (the 19th)

a Rafflecopter giveaway 'I won't stop until every girl and woman has a pair of Keysocks in their drawer'- Shelby McKee

These socks would make FABULOUS Christmas gifts and I highly suggest you order some for you and the ladies in your life! 
They will love you for it!

I think that might possibly be one of the best inventions EVER! I wear my TOMS almost year round and am dreading when the military moves us away from sunny SoCal and it gets too cold to wear them in the winter months. I think I'm going to need these in my sock drawer ASAP! Thanks for this awesome post!

Nat said...

BEST invention ever!! I hate freezing my ankles off just to look cute

Jill @ Bluegrass Belle said...

Thank you SO MUCH. You just helped me find the PERFECT gift for my assistant. Just last night (when she was wearing flats), I said to her, aren't your feet cold?! She said "It's not so much my feet that get cold but my legs." Problem...solved. Just ordered a pair for her!

Helene said...

This is one of those items that you hit yourself in the head and say..."duh, why didn't I think of that." You're brillant Shelby! And, I'm thinking I need to give these for stocking stuffers! YAY!

Anne said...

Do they really not show?! I get so sad when I have to stop wearing my cute flats because my ankles are too cold... this just might be my fix. And how cool that she's from Cincinnati.

Sarah Tucker said...

These make me laugh, but I already know that I'd wear them in a heartbeat! Someone is a genuis for inventing these. Pure genius.

Disregard this whole comment.
