About SOCKSHOP
Here at SOCKSHOP, we care about what you put on your feet! We create socks that make a difference and, to us, socks are never just socks. They are the unsung hero of the wardrobe, they can help you look good, feel good, have fun and keep you warm, cool, comfortable, dry, healthy and energised.
We like to “shake things up” and get people excited about their footwear, working with compassion, creativity and purpose to achieve that goal!
We're here for all your sock needs, from shopping for essentials to gifting. Choose from a huge range of sock drawer staples, fashion styles and specialised socks, with styles for men, ladies and kids, as well as a range of tights, underwear and accessories.
With more than 80 brands including SOCKSHOP, Pringle, ELLE, Heat Holders, JEEP, Wild Feet, Happy Socks, Jeff Banks and more ready to ship the same day (order before 5pm Mon-Thurs, before 4pm Fri), you'll be spoilt for choice.
Our history in a nutshell...
SOCKSHOP was founded in 1983 by Sophie Mirman and Richard P. Ross after Mirman said "People should be able to buy socks as easily as they buy newspapers." SOCKSHOP outlets were placed for convenience on busy city streets, in train stations and at airports, selling socks, tights and ladies' stockings.
SOCKSHOP became part of the Ruia Group in 2006 and has grown to form our biggest store yet - right here online at www.sockshop.co.uk.
