For every pair you buy we give school socks to a child in need - socks are our vehicle for inspiring children to become social entrepreneurs
We are a cheeky bamboo sock comapany with a big social mission.
Sexy Socks adds social and environmental conscience to your wardrobe. Our mission is to ensure that no child ever goes to school with cold feet. By designing the best socks the world has ever seen from 83% bamboo, and giving a pair of school socks to a child in need for every pair you buy.
Not content for our positive impact to end at a pair of socks, we are using our platform in schools to inspire them to look beyond what their world view currently allows, to show children how business can be used as a force for good, and to enable them to realise the potential that they have to change their own lives and the lives of their community for the better.
Being made from bamboo they're great for the environment too!
Limited Edition!
The first 1500 pairs we sell are limited edition designs in the UK for the crowdfunding campaign only. So once they're gone, they're gone and only a select few of you will have them!
Size and Design
Girls Socks are size 4-7 and Men's are size 8-11. When you buy socks through our campaign we will assign designs at random and of course ensure gents get gent designs and girls get girls. We'll follow up with an email after you order to find out if you want girls or guys socks and if you have a specific design in mind we'll do our best to ensure you get what you want!
Bamboo
Made from 83% pure bamboo, Sexy Socks are softest socks on the block. Hypo-allergenic, anti-odour, anti-bacterial, anti-chafe, environmentally sustainable, and made in South Africa. Don’t worry, we’re as baffled as you are about why anyone is still wearing anything else.
Cycling
Hey, big climber. Whether pushing up a monstrous hill or freewheeling as fast as the wind, you need these Sexy Cycling Socks to keep things light, bright and on point. Added bonus? For every pair sold, we give a pair of socks to a child in need. Winning. Made in South Africa from 78% cotton, the Sexy Cycling Socks are mostly double cuff (for that extra bit of compression), with breathable mesh over the top of the foot, super thin feet on the road socks, and some extra padding on the mountain socks.
What is our vision for the future?
Who's behind all this?
Sexy Socks came fourth in the 2017 UN Global Sourcing Council Awards for Sustainable and Socially responsible sourcing. We have also featured in Virgin Unite, MensStuff, and GQ Magazine to name a few.
What have we done so far?
So far we’ve sponsored and given socks to over 20,000 children, and we are working hard to distribute a further 15 000 pairs as we speak.
We already employ 12 people in Cape Town and have helped over 30,000 people drastically up their sock game.
But this isn’t enough.
What we want to do now is expand our impact - we want to reach beyond South Africa and reach out around the world, we need you help to deepen our impact by further developing our sessions in schools and positively affect the lives of millions of people.
Our vision is to expand our existing model so we can reach beyond what we have started in Cape Town.
With your help starting here in the UK, we plan to expand into Europe, The America's, throughought Africa, and Asia.
We would like to expand our schools program to offer children in need regular leadership skills, practical business skills, ongoing coaching and knowledge that will inspire and enable them build their own way out of poverty.
We would like to expand our sock drops and school programs beyond Africa and reach other communities that have cold toes and need help. With your help we can reach underprovileged schools in other countries, orphanages, people without homes, and refugees from conflict who have lost everything.
Good luck :) Let me know when you plan to expand to continental Europe!
Hi. You say 83% bamboo - what is the other 17%? And are the socks fairly made? All I can see on your website is that they are made locally to you. Thanks.
Loving the 'half a pair of socks' idea!! The singletons of my sock drawer will be rejoicing!!!
I'll also be getting a few pairs of cycle socks to keep the attention away from the Lycra on the weekend rides!
Great concept! Good luck.
Such an amazing company and am so excited about what the UK launch will mean for increasing Sexy Socks' impact even further. I'll definitely be getting a six-sock bundle, love the idea of a few week of beautiful socks and all the toes of school children which will be warmed as a result. Good luck Dom and Dave!
