When a sock-loving couple (Thomas and Jess) along with their best friend (Bassam) combined their talents to create socks that the world could really get excited about, Uptown Sox was born.
No matter the occasion, no matter your style, Uptown Sox has your feet covered. Highlighting life's most special moments is what we're all about.
Established in 2016, the Uptown Sox team has been dedicated to providing you with fun, curated socks that are fabricated from high quality yarn content. Our values lie in creating socks we are truly proud of.
