DeFeet steps up with a fundraising sock design for recovery efforts

HILDEBRAN, N.C. — August 28, 2026 /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – DeFeet International announces the immediate release of a specially designed sock created in response to the tragic flash floods that have devastated communities along the Nepal-Tibet border.

The sudden flooding of rivers in the region has claimed dozens of lives, left hundreds missing, and caused widespread destruction of homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods. Moved by the scale of the disaster, DeFeet has designed this limited sock to raise funds for those affected.

All proceeds from the sale of the sock will be donated to the Red Cross, earmarked specifically for relief efforts supporting victims and families impacted by this natural catastrophe.

“When we saw the tragic devastation in Nepal this week we knew what needed to be done on our side,” said Shane Cooper, founder and president of DeFeet. “We designed this sock to raise money for families and the recovery. All proceeds from the sales of these socks go directly to the Red Cross to help with immediate relief and recovery.”

DeFeet has a longstanding tradition of creating limited-edition socks that channel 100% of proceeds toward disaster relief. Exactly 700 days prior to the events in Nepal, North Carolina was hit by Hurricane Helene. DeFeet paused business activities to physically support relief efforts and raised tremendous amounts of funding through its MTN Strong sock programs.

The All for Nepal sock is available now at defeet.com. Customers are encouraged to purchase pairs and support the cause while wearing a tangible reminder of solidarity with the people of Nepal.

Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Hildebran, North Carolina, DeFeet designs and manufactures high-performance socks and accessories for cycling, running, and everyday adventure.
