Athletic competition is something John Cronin, the nationally recognized award-winning entrepreneur and co-founder of John’s Crazy Socks, the largest sock store in the world, has never shied away from. John is a 20-year Special Olympics athlete, demonstrating that Down Syndrome has never held him back and showing others with disabilities that anything is possible.

“I am so happy that we are making these socks for people around the United Sates to celebrate America’s athletes. As a Special Olympics athlete, Down Syndrome has never held me back and I know the same is true for all our athletes competing,” said John Cronin, the award-winning entrepreneur with Down Syndrome and co-founder/Chief Happiness Officer at John’s Crazy Socks.

John’s amazing story includes growing his business, John’s Crazy Socks, with his father, Mark, during the pandemic and making it the largest sock store in the world, visiting Washington DC to promote unity and support hiring people with disabilities, speaking before congress, being sock buddies with President George HW Bush, meeting and sailing with the Kennedy family, traveling the nation speaking about hiring people with differing abilities and much more.
