Big Boi may be best known as one half of Outkast, but he has now added sock designer to his resume.

Speaking to GQ, Big Boi revealed that he apparently has his own line of socks coming out through Atlanta's Crooks & Castles. The conversation was spurred by a pair of Big Boi's own wacky socks, which are pictured above.

The rapper declared, "I'm the sock king! They've got a cape on the back -- that's how I flew here... I got my own socks line coming out with Crooks & Castles. Head over to 677 Antone Street, Atlanta Georgia, 30318 and get some!"

Big Boi recently revealed plans for his upcoming album Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumours, which is due out November 13. And we all know nothing promotes a new record like a custom line of socks.

He also recently appeared on Theophilus London's Rose Island Vol. 1, and you can listen to their collaborative track "She Said OK" below.
