Un passo avanti per la Sindrome di Down
The world is so much brighter thanks to those little things that make us unique. That's why, every year, we design mismatched socks to support World Down Syndrome Day.
A cause close to home
We are proud to work alongside foundations like Aura Fundació, which helps people with intellectual disabilities find employment and supports them throughout their journey.
Diversity and inclusion make this world a better place for everyone, and it's something we know firsthand.

More on World Down Syndrome Day
It's celebrated on March 21st. Why?
Because Down syndrome is also known as Trisomy 21, the triplication (3 copies) of chromosome 21. That's why it is celebrated on this date.
How do we support this cause?
By running 10 kilometers in mismatched socks!
Every year we team up with Aura Fundació, and this year was no exception. In fact, we designed a special 3-sock pack called 3-Socks for DOWN, where 100% of proceeds were donated to support their social and workplace inclusion programs.
And that's not all — these socks were the official design of La Cursa, El Corte Inglés' annual 10k run. Thanks to them, we saw the streets of Barcelona splashed in the colors of inclusion.
We are delighted to collaborate with Aura Fundació, and eager to see what next year brings!
Thanks socks much!
