Latest Updates from Our Project:

First round of sloth socks shipped & email error!!!
almost 5 years ago – Fri, May 24, 2019 at 01:00:20 PM

Hello everyone!

We accidentally sent an out-of-date email to everyone in Backerkit saying their order was shipped. The order the email is describing are the socks you ordered from Kickstarter, and they were shipped A LONG TIME AGO (unless you just recently responded to the backerkit survey), and you have already received these socks in the mail. We are SORRY for the confusion!!! 

If you signed up for a subscription on socksforanimals.com before 5/24, or replied to our email saying you only wanted your preorder sloth socks and confirmed your address, then those were shipped today.

We are now closing our Backerkit store, and will only be taking orders from socksforanimals.com. Orders for our sloth socks will close 6/14. Supplies are limited! 

Also, if you haven't already contacted us, you're all entitled to a 10% off coupon (good until cancellation). Please reply if you're interested. Check out our instagram for updates on the studies we are featuring.

Thanks,

SFA Team

Hi, Kickstarter Buds! 

This is going to be an exciting couple weeks for us. Our website is finished and we are officially taking orders! Check it out here. Up next is a lot of important info, so READ:

Now that we’re ready to start our subscription services, we want to make sure you get exactly what you paid for when you backed us on Kickstarter. Early adopters will fall into one of two main categories below:

ONE. 2-month, 6-month subscriptions - you should have already received TWO redemption codes in an email with instructions on how to use them. If you haven’t received your redemption codes—OR if you have but still have questions regarding redeeming those codes—please send us an email at [email protected].

TWO. Polar bear socks with no subscription, and are interested in subscribing - please email us so that we can set up a 10% off until cancellation redemption code to be used at checkout. This offer is good for 30 days! We will be sending a ONE TIME early shipment for our Kickstarter backers of sloth socks on Monday 5/27, so sign up before then or else your socks will ship with everyone else’s mid-June.

We really love this month's sloth socks, and we're really excited that we can all be involved in donating some money to the Sloth Conservation Foundation for brown-throated sloth research.

Finally, we’ve got some really great surprises and giveaways COMING SOON, so be sure to follow our Instagram and Facebook accounts @socksforanimals so you don’t miss out! Thanks again for supporting us, and we hope you enjoy your socks!

Sincerely,

SFA Team

Update on Socks for Animals Official Launch!
almost 5 years ago – Fri, Apr 05, 2019 at 11:41:31 PM

Hi friends! 

We have been overwhelmed by the positive feedback from our polar bear socks. If you’re one of the people who loves their socks so much you wear them several times a week, we love that (and implore that you wash them between uses)! Please continue to let us know what you think of your polar bear socks.

April is finally here! We have been spending the last several months prepping for our future featured threatened animals. We have also been tirelessly working on our official Socks for Animals site, and although we were hoping for sooner, we are excited to say we will be officially launching in the next 3-5 weeks!

We will be updating you VERY SOON with an official launch date, along with instructions to get set up with your pre-paid sloth socks and/or subscriptions! And because you have supported us from the beginning, to show our gratitude, we are giving you a 10% discounted subscription… FOR LIFE (or until you cancel). 

In the meantime, follow us on instagram and facebook, and get excited for your upcoming sloth socks!

Fulfillment Update

Hi buds. If you've completed your survey, your socks have shipped! We've even heard some of you have already received them, cool! Let us know what you think. We'd love feedback on style, sizing, and anything else you want to tell us about!

If you're one of the 130 people who haven't responded to your survey, yet... Santa Claus is very disappointed in you. We, on the other hand, obviously still love you and just want you to complete your surveys so we can send you the socks you paid for! If you're having issues finding the survey, send us a direct message, and we'll see what we can do.

Ok, bye for now.
