Our socks are designed by our team in London and then manufactured at a family-run factory in Portugal, who are experts at achieving our more complex weaves and designs.  The only exceptions are our cashmere socks and merino welly socks, which are crafted in Scotland.

You can learn more about how our socks are made on our blog: How we make our socks

There is a reason why most clothes are made of cotton – it is a lightweight but durable fibre that holds its colour and shape with multiple washes. We think the best option for everyday socks is Scottish Lisle cotton, which is obtained through a process where the threads are brushed to stop “piling”. The heel, toe and sole are reinforced with a soft but exceptionally strong, man-made fibre called Polyamide. Finally, elastane is used to create a strong hold around the band of the sock, creating the perfect fit around your feet.

If you ordered one to four individual pairs, you will receive them wrapped in our branded tissue paper and packed in one of our lovely London Sock Company envelopes that fit through the letterbox.

If you ordered five to ten individual pairs, these will be wrapped in our branded tissue paper and sent out in a branded box. This is the only instance where the outer packaging will be branded. 

If you’re interested in ordering five to 10 pairs as a gift and do not wish to receive them in branded packaging to avoid spoiling the surprise, we would recommend browsing our selection of gift boxes.

All of our prepacked sets are presented in one of our luxury gift boxes, and the outer packaging will not be branded. 

You can sign up for our Sock Club subscription here. Simply enter your details and choose how many pairs you want to receive each month (or quarter for ROW). There is no joining fee, all you pay for is the socks that we deliver.

You can purchase a gift subscription here. You will have the option to select the duration of the subscription plan (3, 6 or 12 months) and the number of pairs you would like the lucky recipient to get every month or quarter.

Welcome to our Sock Club! You can activate your gift voucher here

Absolutely. Go wild. As a subscription member, you have access to our exclusive member’s section where you can edit your sock queue (simply click ‘Manage queue’) to suit your preference.

Members can log in here

The first pair(s) will be dispatched 1-2 days after you sign up or redeem the voucher, so you can start adding socks to your queue as soon as you set up the subscription. Once you’ve added the pairs you want to receive to your queue, simply sit back and relax – you don’t need to follow any additional steps. 

From then on, we’ll email you in advance each month or quarter giving you some time to update your queue, pause or cancel your up-coming subscription. The socks will be shipped automatically on the date indicated on your dashboard. 

As a sock club member, you will have access to all of our patterns, colours and styles except for our Merino Wool, Cashmere, Welly and Special Edition ranges, as they are exclusive collections.

We believe that you can never have too many socks. But, if you find your sock drawer is overflowing, you can pause or cancel your subscription anytime via the member portal. Simply log on at londonsockcompany.com/sign-in

Yes, shipping is included in the price of our Sock Club subscriptions so you can rest assured that there are no delivery charges on top of the monthly or quarterly subscription cost. However, depending on your location your order may be subject to import duties, which are levied once your package reaches your country. For more information on import duties, please see our Delivery & Returns page.

Unfortunately not. However, if your subscription order has been dispatched more than 5 business days ago in the UK or more than 15 business days outside of the UK, please get in touch with our Customer Care team who will be happy to assist you.

When it comes to socks, we work quickly. So once your order is confirmed our fulfilment centre will start preparing it for shipping. Please make sure to review all your order details before you complete the checkout process to avoid any potential issues. However, if you do notice an error or would like to cancel your order please get in touch with us ASAP. We will do our best to resolve the issue for you, but please keep in mind that if your order has already been processed by our fulfilment centre, we will unfortunately not be able to make any changes.

Thank you for choosing us for your gift! During the checkout process, you will be given the option to add a short gift note that will be printed and sent with your order. 

If you want to give the gift of great sock style to someone and have the socks shipped to them directly, you can simply use their address as the delivery address for your order. This box is located just below the delivery and billing address form on the checkout page, listed as ‘Ship to a different address?’

And don’t worry, we don’t display the prices of our socks on the paperwork included with the order, so you can keep how much you’ve spent to yourself.

As all of our gift boxes are pre-packed, we are currently unable to offer customised gift sets. However, we offer a wide selection of gift boxes suitable for every taste and occasion!

In the unlikely event that you receive a faulty pair of socks or that they develop a hole, please get in touch with our Customer Care team with your order number and a picture of the fault or hole. We will be happy to look into it and, as per our Sock Sure guarantee, we’ll replace any damaged socks within a year of purchase.

Supporting people and helping others Walk Brighter through our Share-a-Pair initiative has been something at the heart of LSC since we began. With every purchase from London Sock Company, we support London-based charity Suited & Booted. Their team work with unemployed, vulnerable and low-income men to dress them in smart clothes (including LSC socks) ready for interviews and next steps in life.

Great news, our Sock Amnesty is on! And this time we have taken it to the next level by partnering with The Reclaimery to repurpose donated socks into warm fingerless gloves for those in need with charity Give Your Best. To learn more about this initiative and The Reclaimery, visit our Sock Amnesty page.

We receive a large number of requests for our support from various organisations, and we are truly grateful to be considered for these wonderful events.

However, as a small business it is not possible for us to honour all of them, and we would not want to arbitrarily choose between all these worthwhile causes. For this reason, we are only able to work with our long-standing charity partners at this time. 

We wish you every success!
