Red Socks Day commemorates Sir Peter Blake, who was killed by pirates on December 5th, 2001. The red socks came about because when leading the winning 1995 America's Cup racing team, Sir Blake wore red socks. In fact, the only time his team ever lost was when he and his red socks were not on the boat. The first mentions of Red Socks Day appear to be in 2010.
