Made some work for ModSocks about a year ago as a student project. Needed an updated version of this GIF tonight for a pitch I’m working on and I thought I’d share it here too.

We Can Do It! Three “Rosie the Riveter” Crews | ModSocks

A cultural icon from Word War II, Rosie the Riveter has stayed strong as a symbol of power over the decades since. These crew socks pull from the poster that has come to be associated with this icon, and are a great reminder that you can do it, that we can do it. And, as with the two “Nasty Rosie” variations, we don't gotta be nice about it.

Three varieties, all available in yellow and navy, and all fit US women's shoe size 6-11 / men's 4-9.

Nasty Rosie Kerchief Crews (bottom left), depicting the original light-skinned woman in a kerchief from the classic poster, but this time the woman is flipping off the camera, with the word "nasty" written on her bicep.

Nasty Rosie Headband Crews (bottom right), depicting a darker-skinned woman wearing a headband in the classic pose, also flipping off the camera, and with the word "nasty" written on her bicep. 

ModSocks, the creator of these socks, gives all profits from the Nasty Rosie collection to organizations that empower women. Read about the effort here.
