Everyone should own something MINT.
$Twenty two will get you a pair of newly minted socks. We’ve washed ours hundreds of times and we can’t seem to make them sag, deform, or discolor. We definitely can’t spin cycle the shape out of them. Speaking of spin cycle: if you want your MINTs to maintain their height, don't put them in the dryer!
GIVING BACK.
These days twenty-two bucks is not a ton of coin for finely knit threads but it's still twenty-two bucks and that could be spent on tacos. So if you choose to buy MINTs instead of tacos, then thank you.
We also give back. For every pair of socks, a percentage goes to the National Interscholastic Cycling Association, also known as NICA. Jump here to our SpinCycle News to read more about NICA.
And just to note...when our socks ship directly from us to you they’ll arrive in what we think is an uber mod reusable button and string-tie box. This is the type of box you might have seen sitting on the art director’s desk at one of those 1950s advertising firms. If you weren’t born yet – and most of us weren’t - then maybe you saw one on Mad Men. We hope you'll want to reuse it.
NICA first. And foremost. #morekidsonbikes
We put our own Mint socks through countless spin and dry cycles in attempt to wear them down. While we were unable to tire them we do believe that your socks are most likely to stay true to size if you line dry them like the Italians do. We believe that your freshly minted socks could shrink a quarter to half an inch if you toss them un-discerningly and repetitively into the dryer.
Line dry for best results is is one of the reasons why we made our first freshly minted batch seven inches in length. If they are unwittingly tossed in the dryer, you’re unlikely to notice a huge difference when you’re already walking tall.
Many Americans, especially cyclists, toss their socks in the dryer because riding in dry socks is better than waiting for socks to dry.
