Just in time for the 2010 World Cup, country-themed Happy Socks by Wong Wong come to Urban Outfitters this summer. Named after its founder Stephen Wong, the New York-based design collective was established in 2007, and their soccer-inspired accessories debuted in New York and Paris the following year. With existing offerings including footie scarves and tote bags, the new collection of colorful socks is a fitting addition to the label's selection of items for the soccer enthusiast.

This line is Wong Wong's first collaboration with Happy Socks, with colors and designs representing flags of nine respected nations in soccer: Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Holland, Italy, this year's host -- South Africa, and the United States. Six of the countries are previous World Cup champions, and to honor their victories, their socks have an embroidered star for each past title won.

Support your team during this year's World Cup with Happy Socks by Wong Wong, available at Urban Outfitters stores and
online today.
