This valentine’s day rather than going for a typical red rose or a heart-shaped chocolate box or a big teddy bear, how about you go for some socks? Lindo Ramone, the widow of the late punk star and legend Johnny Ramone, has collaborated with Happy Socks for a fantastic collection.
Who is Linda Ramone?
Are you wondering about Linda Ramone? Well, if you don’t know, we are here to help you. Linda Ramone, born on July 24, 1960, is the widow of legendary guitarist Johnny Ramone and a philanthropist. Linda Ramone is also the president and co-owner of Ramones Productions, and she was famously subject to many songs by the Ramones band, including She’s a sensation, Danny says, and the KKK took my baby away. She is also the president and founder of the Johnny Ramone Army, an organization that holds live events and charity fundraisers on behalf of Johnny Ramone’s estate.
About the collaboration
The new collaboration with Happy socks is inspired by her rock n roll love story with Johnny Ramone. Linda designed a handful of cool socks prints that show various phases of her time with Johnny Ramone. The special edition is called Happy Socks x Linda & Johnny Ramone collection, which is now available for sale.
The collaboration features three pairs of cotton crew socks priced at $16 each and one pair of knee-highs priced at $18 with socks prints ranging from J&L arrow-stricken heart to guitar and lighting bolts. There’s also a special gift box in the collaboration that is priced for $48, and the gift box is inspired by Linda’s favorite mural in the house she was living in with Johnny.
Press Release
In the press release, Linda Ramone stated that love to her means being happy and being surrounded by things that make you happy, and Johnny (Her husband) made me very, very happy. She further added, everyone should have some punk, glam and glitter, and some 1960s in their life.
Happy Socks also featured that many rock and punk’s greatest relationships were shining bright and faded super-fast. But the fashion icon Linda Ramone and legendary artist Johnny Ramone never lost their charm, and they never lost sight of what mattered to them. Their story is one of true love that stood the test of time and came out shining bright always.
The latest happy socks collection with Linda Ramone follows the Swedish brand’s previous collection with Pharrel Williams, Beatles, and Andy Warhol’s legendary banana print.
The Campaign
Linda showed off her Happy socks collab in a psychedelic campaign. The campaign was photographed at the couple’s ranch. In the campaign, you’ll see Linda posing in front of the camera in retro-inspired mini dresses, white pumps, and faux feathers.
Don’t feel left out from nostalgic fun. You can grab yourself your favorite pair of the 60s inspired Linda Ramone X Happy socks collab from online stores or happy stock stores.
