High Point-Thomasville Hi-Toms Crewneck Sweatshirt - Vintage Defunct Baseball Teams - North CarolinaThomasville fielded its first professional team, the Chair Makers, in 1937, a direct nod to the city's furniture manufacturing economy. After stints as the Tommies and the Thomasville Dodgers, the franchise was renamed in 1948 at the suggestion of longtime player manager Jimmy Grudzis, who worked with High Point Enterprise sports editor Bill Curry to come up with a name that would represent both High Point and Thomasville. The result, Hi Toms, stuck.

Thomasville fielded its first professional team, the Chair Makers, in 1937, a direct nod to the city's furniture-manufacturing economy. After stints as the Tommies and the Thomasville Dodgers, the franchise was renamed in 1948 at the suggestion of longtime player-manager Jimmy Grudzis, who worked with High Point Enterprise sports editor Bill Curry to come up with a name that would represent both High Point and Thomasville. The result, Hi-Toms, stuck.

A year later, in 1949, a seventeen-year-old third baseman named Eddie Mathews arrived at Finch Field and hit .363 with 17 home runs in just 63 games, helping the Hi-Toms win the North Carolina State League championship. Mathews went on to hit 512 career home runs and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1978.

The Hi-Toms joined the Carolina League in 1954 as a Cincinnati Reds affiliate. In 1955 they posted the best regular-season record in franchise history, only to lose the league championship to the Danville Leafs in a six-game series, Danville's third Carolina League title. The Hi-Toms switched to a Philadelphia Phillies affiliation in 1957 and 1958 before the franchise folded after that season.

Finch Field itself was built in 1935 by Thomasville Furniture Industries as a recreation ground for its employees, and team scorecards from the Hi-Toms' mid-1950s heyday featured a sly, top-hatted cartoon tomcat swinging a bat over the ballpark, an image this design borrows directly from.

Works well if you wear them every day
Color: Lavender Luxury, Color: Lavender Luxury
These heel socks do work, but you need to be consistent and patient. The socks are soft with a gel lining on the inside that basically traps your body heat and moisture—kind of like a mini spa for your feet. My heels felt noticeably softer after just one hour of wearing them. That said, I don’t love sleeping with socks on, so it took me two nights to get used to them. I even took them off the first night because I couldn’t stand the feeling. After five nights of use with nightly exfoliating, my heels are definitely softer, but still cracked in some areas. I’m hoping they keep improving with continued use. If you stick with it and exfoliate regularly, these socks definitely help soften rough skin. Not a miracle fix overnight, but a helpful tool for healing cracked heels.
