I think the sock monkey is just a classic thing that people have always laughed at and enjoyed over the years so it never dies.

I think its crazy how such things suddenly come right in front of us from old times. I like the monkey though, its a cheap, innovative and a cute toy.

For some people they are always nostalagic about these clothing fashion. There are lots of people who prefer to use classic things. I want to question how this sock monkey came to market so suddenly after 80 years which is amazing. I am guessing this product might not be popular after some decades and might become famous again 100 years later.

I have no idea what the appeal is of these monkeys. I can’t remember ever seeing one of these things in my life. I don’t know if its a gender thing or an age thing but this just isn’t something that appeals to me, utility wise or aestheticly.

I love monkies in general and have had fun in the past making sock puppets for a puppet show before it seems like a great way to bond with friends and family to show off their creativity to one another.

I give this company less than 20 years. As the older generation continues to age, the nostalgia will die out and nobody will care about them soon. That is the problem with generational products, excluding bell-bottom jeans.

Targeting cherished memories is definitely a great strategy. The sentimental value of these monkeys is what will make them sell, not their overall appearance.

It is very interesting to know that it has been since 60′s. Old products and ideas make a place for themselves.

people are always gonna be nostalgic. Companies that can capitalize on those cherished memories stand to make a huge profit. Look at how well Chuck Taylor shoes are doing.
