    John Cronin, a 28-year-old entrepreneur with Down Syndrome, started John's Crazy Socks in 2016. The Farmingdale, New York-based company now sells more than 4,000 different types of socks and has hit a major milestone: over two million orders fulfilled, per a report published Wednesday by the New York Post.

    The socks on offer range from holiday-focused to Harry Potter-branded. There are also special designs that raise awareness for Down syndrome and autism, and gift packs, like a women's dog rescue gift containing three different pairs of dog-themed socks.

    Cronin, his parents Mark and Carol, and his older brother Jamie run the business together

        I have no idea if the socks are any good, but it's a great story!

          It is indeed!

          As an aside, finding good socks seems to be increasingly challenging. 😕
