It was a most bittersweet #tbt yesterday when we posted a design from our very first production run in 2011 - Purple Rain. Since then, we've had a good handful of people asking for it's re-release. You asked, we listened (to the entire anthology.) For a limited time only, we are re-releasing Purple Rain. It's available now for pre-sale! Lead the way to radiance, sweet Prince.

Family. Tradition. Reunions. Ancestral folklore. That moment when you first realize that your entire family is 100% bonkers, and then everybody embraces and celebrates the bonkiness because that's what family means. Every year, Zach's family reunites to watch high-school wrestling championships. Why? Because they just do. We've known families that pelt each other with grapes and pennies every New Years. A creepy gnome atop the Christmas tree because angels are evidently passé. A card game before each football game to see if the odds are in your favor.  Hank Williams Jr. has a couple things to say about Family Traditions. Hopefully you do too.  WHAT YOU'RE WINNING: We have 5 care packages this week featuring Misc. Goods Co!  We have an intense soft spot for self-made entrepreneurs who phoenix out of the ashes of a crowdfunding campaign. Tyler Deeb is that entrepreneur. Deeply humble with a rad aesthetic, Tyler's company Misc. Good Co. makes products that make memories. Oh, and speaking of families - Misc Goods Co pays the bills for these angel creatures. Swoon. Each winner gets a set of iconic Misc Goods Co playing cards and a pair of their favorite Freaker Feet! HOW TO ENTER: Get on Instagram and show us your favorite family tradition. Use the hashtag #FreakerGoods for your chance to win! Winners announced in our Tuesday newsletter!

Friday evening marks the beginning of Passover! Even if you're not Jewish, I bet you can appreciate the radness of the holiday. Passover is a celebration of freedom, of family, of ancestors, of tradition, and of deliverance. (No, not the Burt Reynolds movie.) We don't have a matzah Freaker, but we DO have a Woody Allen doppleganger practicing martial arts - and don't worry, it's unleavened. This week only, Jew Jitsu Freakers & Feet are 30% off online! Happy Passover, everybody!

April is Autism Awareness Month! Puzzle Peace is a shoutout to our lovely spectrum buddies and their beautiful minds.  FACT: 90% of adults affected by autism are unemployed. That's a number we can't wrap our brains around, so we're donating proceeds to one of our favorite rock-star do-good organizations, the nonPareil Institute! NonPareil is a non-profit tech company that provides adults on the spectrum job training, employment, and housing. The technical training focuses on how to build technology, video games, apps, and prepare them for market release. Watch the trailer for Programming Hope, the documentary about the inspiring journey and vision of nonPareil, here! Pioneers and Game Changers, indeed.   Ladies and gentlemen, give a warm welcome to the newest member of the Freaker Family...

The guilty pleasures of summer. They get weird, but by definition they are amazing. Some people's summer reading list starts and stops with Craigslist's Casual Encounters. Mexican soap operas are incredible, especially when you don't speak Spanish. We once lived with a girl who would buy fast food french fries, fast food ice cream, stir them together in a bowl, stick it in the freezer, and have a feast 3 days later. Whatever your guilty pleasure may be, we're here to cheer you on. (Except for the McFlurry frozen fries pie. Don't do that.) WHAT YOU'RE WINNING: We have 5 care packages this week featuring the sweet treat named Hartland Brooklyn.  Nestled away in the Catskills of New York, Hartland Brooklyn makes paper products and temporary tattoos with an aesthetic of child-like nostalgia for long summer days and junk food adventurism! Much like our own story, Emily Johnson started making tiny treasures for friends in her spare time. It wasn't long before the demand for her charming designs exceeded her handmade supply. Fast forward a couple of years and BAM - it's blossomed into a lovely, homegrown, small business spreading happiness to all! Each winner gets a choice of Hartland Brooklyn product (tattoos, nail tattoos, or greeting cards!), a pair of You Got Soft Served Freaker Feet, and a matching Freaker! HOW TO ENTER: Get on Facebook, find this graphic, and show us your favorite guilty pleasure in the comments for your chance to win!  Winners announced in our Tuesday newsletter!

#tbt to factory learning curves. #AmericanMade

A little bird told us that our northern friends were snowed in yesterday while we baked in the sunshine of a toasty southern spring. One is getting iced. The other is eating ice cream.  In honor of fun-sprinkles of all varieties, our Freak of the Week is You Got Soft Served! Both the Freaker and Freaker Feet will be 30% off this week! 

Today is a special day. Today we're switching up our entire system. We're unleashing the madness of 39 new draft-picks onto the Freaker-scene. Check out all of our fresh meat here!  From here on out, instead of releasing 1 new design a week, we will be putting 1 design on sale every week. Freak of the Week!
