Every year, the month of October takes on a special significance: it is Pink October , an international breast cancer awareness campaign. This month is dedicated to education, awareness , and fundraising for research, prevention, and support for those affected by this disease.
Pink October: together against breast cancer
In France, breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women, with nearly 60,000 new cases each year. Unfortunately, statistics reveal that, although it is a largely curable cancer, nearly 12,000 women die from it each year.
Early detection plays a crucial role in the fight against breast cancer. Detecting the disease at an early stage significantly increases the chances of recovery , with a success rate of up to 90% when appropriate treatments are administered. Around 40% of cases are discovered through regular screening examinations. Therefore, it is essential to encourage women to participate in these screening programs and familiarize themselves with self-examination techniques.
At Cygnes , we firmly believe that raising awareness is the first step toward change. That's why we're committed to supporting this vital cause and mobilizing our community. In this article, we'll introduce you to our initiatives and products specially designed for Pink October , because every little bit counts in this fight against breast cancer.
Swans commits to Pink October
For Pink October, we are pleased to present our limited-edition collection of ultra-durable pink socks , combining comfort and style. 100% made in France, these socks embody our commitment to local, high-quality production.
But that's not all! By purchasing a pair of pink socks , you're not just choosing a trendy accessory, you're also supporting an essential cause. In fact, for the purchase of a pair of pink socks, €5 will be donated to the League Against Cancer.
The Ligue contre le cancer is a French association committed to the fight against cancer for over a century. It supports research, raises awareness of screening, and supports patients and their loved ones. Each year, it plays a key role during Breast Cancer Day by promoting breast cancer prevention and helping women access care and information to reduce the impact of this disease.
How to wear your pink Swan socks?
We've thought of making it easy to integrate these pink socks into your wardrobe. Opt for a casual look with sneakers for everyday style, or choose a more elegant option. For this, we offer a two-tone set: a black satin skirt for a touch of sophistication, paired with a pink wool sweater that subtly recalls our socks. Complete this look with black loafers for perfect harmony. Our pink socks adapt to all your desires, while adding a touch of color to your outfits.
October 2023, a remarkable commitment at Cygnes
Last year, for Pink October, we had the immense pleasure of offering a pink scrunchie with every order. Your commitment was incredible, with 80 orders placed, meaning our entire stock was sold out ! Thanks to you, we were able to make a significant donation to the Ligue contre le cancer , thus contributing to this cause that is so close to our hearts. This year again, we are proud to continue our action with our pink socks , and we hope, together, to exceed this great solidarity success .

dsl, je viens de m’apercevoir que vous étiez en Europe.
Bonjour,
Je travaille à la clinique du sein de l’hôpital de Saint-Hyacinthe et, chaque année, en collaboration avec le service de radiologie (mammographie), nous organisons une collecte de fonds dans le cadre du Mois rose. Ma question est la suivante : auriez vous des produits à prix réduits ou encore des modèles d’années précédentes que nous pourrions acheter pour soutenir notre collecte ?
