About The London Sock Exchange

Written by the company

We're an independent British design studio dedicated to making amazing socks, for a reasonable price, and upholding the highest standards in sustainability.

From our studio we conceive exclusive, in-house designs which feel playful, contemporary and full of charm.

We then work with carefully-selected partners and manufacturers to ensure the highest, most ethical standards in crafting our socks. That means every single pair is knitted with 200 needles using triple-certified, sustainably-sourced organic cotton for a finer, stronger finish, and is finished by hand for a seamless fit.

And finally, we work tirelessly to sock it to our customers around the world. Whether it’s through our famous sock subscription, our exclusive giftboxes, or through a simple pair of socks: we promise never to cut corners, and always to make the best possible sock we can for the best possible price. If you'd like to learn more about us, or just want to say hi, then we'd love to hear from you.

Brilliant socks, sustainably made.

Written by the company

We don't have a standalone "sustainability programme". That's because for us, environmental and societal impact is not an afterthought to doing business. Rather, we factor in environmental and societal criteria into every single decision we make as a business. From our long-running sock recycling programme to plastic-free packaging to yarn selection, you can find out more about how we're working as sustainably as possible on our website.

I am very disappointed with my order

I am very disappointed with my purchase. I ordered the Golf giftbox, but after washing them just once, 1 pair was already damaged. Considering the price I paid, I expected much better quality and durability.

I contacted customer service about this issue and even sent a follow-up email, but I never received any response. For a company selling products at this price point, I believe it is reasonable to expect both better product quality and a customer service team that actually helps when problems arise.

Unfortunately, this experience has left me dissatisfied and unlikely to order again.

Update: After the response from The London Sock Exchange, I sent two more emails to customer service. I still haven’t heard anything and haven’t been helped.

Reply from The London Sock Exchange

Hello,

We’re really sorry to hear this – that’s certainly not what we’d expect after a first wash, and it does sound like a fault. We completely understand how disappointing that must have been.

We also want to confirm that we respond to all customer emails, particularly when a product issue is raised. If you haven’t seen a reply from us, it’s possible our response may have landed in your spam or junk folder, which does occasionally happen.

Please do email us again at hello@thelondonsockexchange.net with your order details (and, if possible, a photo), and we’ll make sure this is resolved for you straight away with a replacement or refund.

We’d really welcome the chance to put this right – thanks again!

Quick response & cutest socks!

First of all, your response to my question via email was soooo quick, thank you for that. The three socks I bought this time was a gift to a very fashion conscious person, the result was an absolute success! He loved all of them. You are a go-to shop when it comes to a small gift for a male friend.

Great quality in itself. Packing could be improved.

It was really good. The quality of the socks were exactly as expected. The designs beautiful. The recipient loved the gift. The only thing I would improve on is the packing materials. I think it was delivered in a soft post bag, with no cushioning, so the thin cardboard of the box the socks came in was slightly bent and creased. I deliberated whether to gift the socks in this creased box or not, as it slightly cheapened the effect of the gift, but in the end I smoothed it out as best I could and did so. So while I’ve still given five stars overall, I’d really recommend working on a sturdier packing option so it arrives pristine.

Coffee & Bike Socks

I recently placed an online order with London Sock Exchange and I’m extremely happy with the experience. The delivery was very fast, the quality is amazing, and the socks look even better in real life than in the pictures. I’ll definitely be ordering again!
