About Sole & Stripe

A sock is a small thing. We treat it as if it were not.

Sole & Stripe began with a simple frustration: the socks that felt good were plain, and the socks with personality felt cheap. We make both at once — premium cotton, thoughtful materials and distinctive design, for men, women and children.

Questions

Frequently asked

What are the socks made from?
Long-staple combed cotton, with elastane only where it is needed for hold. Dyes and inks are toxic-free and skin-safe, including on the kids' range.
Do you hold stock?
Deliberately very little. Pairs are knitted to order through our production partner, which keeps the range wide, the quality consistent and waste low.
Can I order a single custom pair?
Yes. There is no minimum order — one pair is made to the same standard as one hundred.
How are gifts presented?
In a rigid espresso box with tissue, copper ribbon and a hand-noted card, ready to give as received.
What about returns?
Unworn house-collection pairs can be returned within 30 days. Personalized pairs are made for you, so they can only be returned if faulty.
