You might just email them from their site and ask about getting some directly.
This may involve bribery or pleading.

You don't want those Foot Traffic socks. The pair I have are pretty
cheap-looking, and more importantly, just aren't going to fit any
reasonably sized male cyclist very well, a combination of tree-trunk
calves and the fact these are meant to fit women.

No, seriously, I bought a pair, and I wear them, but they're not as nice
as they could be. I bought the red, white and black ones (they match my
team kit).

After researching the whole knee-high argyle sock affair, it's clear the
only good option is to buy socks meant to go with golf knickers:

On the upside, I think they can match both the standard Rock Racing
"monsterbarf" color scheme, and the new red/black barbed-wire variant.

The reason I haven't ordered these socks for myself is that with
shipping, we're talking around $40. That's hard to justify. Instead, I
just bought about $30 worth of Unibroue tonight, which seemed a better
choice.

For the record, I think the One True (not-really-racing) Aesthetic
involves the correct pair of these argyle golf socks, a set of Rapha's
plus-four cut cycling knickers, and a wool jersey that matches the socks
(or vice versa).

You really aren't cool until you've got a belly button sponsor (tattooing
optional; you even get a Magilla one:

That's...so wrong. But funny!

How smart does a 45-year-old feel when he has a tattoo like that?

When Times Square, NYC was still grotty I saw a wooden
carved effigy of a fist with middle finger raised. I
laughed and laughed and bought one. All I can say is
I'm glad it was not a tattoo.

As much as I try to put my pet primates out of my mind, you mfrs won't
allow it.

Guess it depends on whether he thinks he has to be a good little cog
in the nice little machine now, and not think, or do anything that
would offend anyone.
I used to think it was fun to watch people [censored] their pants over
harmless [censored], but now they kick you out of school, pass laws, and in
Euro/Canada take your money or lock you up for offending people now.
Seems to me it's even more important to offend those [censored] today.
I don't think there's any danger of Howard and I feeling bad about
[censored] like that, or pissing off small minded morons no matter how old
we get. Hell If I make it to 80 I wanna get together with Howard,
drink some beers, moon a bunch of evangelicals, then [censored] on the
latest politician who's saving us from ourselves. By then I won't be
able to hear my kids [censored] the Metal I like to listen too is too
loud either. Have to play some Mercyful Fate for those evangelicals
too.

If he can still see the tattoo without resorting to a mirror, then he might feel
pretty smart.

Yes, unlike the other commentators, I think you sorta get what I'm
edging towards. Mind you, I'm in my mid 30s and I own a Nintendo DS and
Wii, so perhaps I shouldn't fret so much about the maturity issues
others might be facing.

But back to tattoos:

"Take your current age, now subtract ten years from it. Were you smart
back then?"
