Acrobatic Sock Short Films

The Stance 'Contortionist' Video Shows What Their Products Can Do

Pairing socks with dance and acrobatics brings the '80s classic movie 'Flashdance' to mind, the Stance 'Contortionist' video will keep it there. There might not be any water or chairs involved, but there is a fair share of leg raises, backbends and more.

The first video for the sock brand's The Uncommon Thread series, the Stance 'Contortionist' video has been beautifully art directed. Based in Los Angeles, it is only natural that they would want to take socks to the next performative level. The latest collection is as brightly colored as ever, so the designs stand out quite a bit in the otherwise dark Stance 'Contortionist' film.

As is written on their about us page, "A commune of creativity, STANCE is dedicated to the spirit of individuality."
