Mississippi calls to mind bluegrass, catfish, the grand Mississippi River, and Magnolias. In 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt refused to kill a bear while on a hunting trip in Mississippi. The ensuing newspaper narratives led to the creating of the “Teddy Bear”. This sock features a simple bear face over wild stripes.
