Robbing Peter to Pay Paul

John Lee Cronin is a 21-year-old with Down Syndrome and a passion for socks. Together, John and his dad Mark launched John’s Crazy Socks in December 2016. Since then they’ve sold thousands of pairs of ankle socks, crew socks, and knee highs. If you visit their website, https://johnscrazysocks.com/ you can buy taco socks, shark socks, alien socks, and socks with Albert Einstein’s face on them. You can pick up socks for men, women, teens, children and toddlers. Because John is a Special Olympian, 5% of the company’s profits are donated to Special Olympics. John also lends his support for autism awareness and breast cancer research. John and Mark make in-person deliveries to houses in the Long Island area. For anyone living farther, John says, “In every box I put a handwritten note, some candy, and two discount cards for 10% off. One for customers and one to give to a friend.”
