Activating Socks

We do not automatically activate this product on your behalf, but in Artist Studio it’s easier than ever to activate new products. 

Reminder: We launch new products to artists before making them available to customers in order to allow for merchandising and time for artists to update their shops. At first, socks will not be included in the “Apparel & Bags” dropdown in the main navigation on our site. Once it launches to customers, you’ll be able to find it there.

Activating socks using an existing artwork is easier than ever in Artist Studio using the “My Products” page. To start, hover over your avatar (top right of site) and click on “Manage My Posts.” Navigate to “My Products” and locate socks under either “New Products” or “Apparel & Bags.” You will now see all of the creatives that are published and ready to be enabled on socks under “Disabled.” Any creatives that are missing assets that meet the sock requirements will appear under “Incomplete.” You can quickly upload a new asset by hovering over the design and clicking “Upload.”

Visit your Artist Studio

Navigate to "My Products," locate socks, and then select "Disabled" to view all existing creatives that are ready to be enabled on socks.

If a creative is missing assets that meet the sock size requirements, it will appear under "Incomplete." Upload a new asset by hovering over the design and clicking "Upload."

If the previews look good, you can “Select All” and then click “Enable” to activate all of the designs that meet the asset requirements at once. For the best quality products, be sure to carefully review the positioning of the creative prior to activating.

To quickly enable all designs that meet the asset requirements, choose "Select All" and then click "Enable."

Special Considerations for Editing Socks

When enabling socks, keep in mind that your artwork will wrap around the product and meet at a seam in the back. You can design the left and right sock differently but we recommend downloading the PSD template in Artist Studio for more details. While editing, select “Generate Previews” to double check your work and view the placement of the final product.
