Please download the mockup file before starting the Real Sock Mockup Design Guide.
We have published the article “Sock Illustrator/Photoshop Design Mockup Guide“, but they are different. This Real mockup is a photo of the real socks, mixed with the design, with a more realistic preview.

![Real Sock Mockup Design Guide 3 Real Sock Mockup list](jpg/real-sock-mockup-list.jpg)
Find the corresponding mockup file, open it.
2. Design your socks pattern
When you open the file you will find the default design demo. On the right side of the mockup is a large sock design pattern. We recommend that you design your socks separately, instead of starting the design directly on the socks mockup. But if you are a simple pattern or just your logo you can skip and go to next step.

The complete design pattern is very beneficial to our socks knitting machine code, we don’t need to spend more time extracting patterns.
3.Update your design preview
Copy the pattern you designed to the top of the “design folder”, above the “demo” layer. Adjust the position of the sock design pattern so that it is displayed at the left socks.
![Real Sock Mockup Design Guide 5 add you design on demo design top](png/add-you-design-on-demo-top.png)
Find the “toe heel cuff” layer whose color represents the color of the toe, heel and cuff. If you want to modify the color of different parts individually, you can find separate graphics in the hidden “heel and cuff” group.
