Irish Socksciety

We fell in love with Ireland and Irish lifestyle.

Thit muid i ngrá le hÉirinn

Irish Socksciety loves all that is quirky and humorous of contemporary Ireland.

We feel that feet have lots to say, and to help them talk, we design colourful and funny socks here, in Galway, on the west coast of Ireland, in the middle of the beautiful Wild Atlantic Way.

We are Alex and Joanna

We are best friends who dance, laugh and work together – in any order really, as it usually happens all at once. We are the kind of people who usually wear baggy, black or grey clothes but socks, socks are very special to us.

We choose them very carefully, sometimes odd socks, sometimes patterned or themed and always lots of colour. That’s why designing socks is what we are passionate about.

Our socks brighten up any occasion from boring business meeting to a wonderful wedding, lunch with family or party with mates.

 

While we are aiming to establish our own factory in Galway, we are devoted to produce our socks as local as possible. Our socks are designed in Galway, stored in Galway and dispatched from Galway. We produce the socks in well established family socks businesses located in the EU only. This allows us to meet the people we work with, establish a good quality control and ensure our values of sustainability and care are met. Over the years we have become great friends with the manufacturers, we know their employees and their stories. They come and visit us in Galway, learn about Ireland and the culture we love so much.
