From California, the popular STANCE (import agent: Custom Produce Co., Ltd.[Head office: Abiko City, Chiba Prefecture, President: Minoru Goukon]), which is popular for its various designs and comfort, will be released in January 2023. The Yomiuri Giants have concluded an official baseball sock supplier contract for the first time as a sock.

- In MLB, all 30 teams have worn STANCE since 2016 (7 years ago) to produce “attractive feet”
STANCE’s baseball socks combine both gear-like elements and fashion to improve baseball performance. In Major League Baseball (MLB), all 30 teams have been wearing STANCE since 2016 (7 years ago). Also, during special events such as “Mother’s Day”, “All Star”, and “Independence Day”, we prepare and wear special socks for that day only.
