socks 1 [4G] BlacksocksWelcome to another edition of [4G] — Guyism Gear, Gadgets, and Goodies — where we bring you the latest in the stuff you need to see, do, own, or play, plus as is almost always the case we’re giving something away.

We’re guys so doing things like, say, buying socks, is pretty low on our list of priorities. So what if there was a company out there that could cross that little item off our to-do list? Well, what do you know, there is!!

Swiss-company Blacksocks.com, a proprietary sockscription service that saves men wasted hours each year shopping, sorting and searching for socks, is launching in North America. After ten successful years in Europe, Blacksocks offers the same hallmark attributes of convenience, service, and quality to US customers.

Sockscription… nice.

“Blacksocks has been a phenomenon in Europe since its market debut ten years ago,” said Samy Liechti, president and creator of Blacksocks. “Our products are high-quality and comfortable; men never have to worry about misplacing or matching socks again; and the sockscription process is simple. Best of all: you don’t have to ever waste another minute shopping for socks. Your sock drawer will replenish itself.”

For an annual subscription of $89 (shipping included), “sockscribers” receive three pairs of socks every four months for a total of nine pairs annually. You have the option of calf socks, knee socks, and cashmere silk socks. And trust me, guys, this service is a good one because they’ve sold over a MILLION socks with it. And just to prove it we’re giving away a trial pack (three pairs worth $30).

To be entered to win the Blacksocks trial pack (a $30 value) all you have to do is sign up to be our friend on Facebook. The winner will be chosen from all of our Facebook friends on January 17, 2011. You must be from the United States to be eligible.
