== History ==
The company was founded in 1999 by Marcel Roth and Samy Liechti as a general partnership. According to Liechti, he was inspired to form a sock subscription service after wearing worn and mismatched socks to a traditional Japanese tea ceremony for business clients.〔BusinessWeek article, http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/jul2002/tc20020724_9718.htm〕 In 2001, the company changed its name to Blacksocks SA, a corporation based out of Zurich. Roth left the company in 2005.
