About Us

Thank you for taking the time to come and learn a bit about us! We are a small, independent, family-run business with over forty years in retail. The Shooting Sock Company was established in 2005 and was born from a love of British eccentricities and design.

Many of our shooting socks and garters are designed in-house and are available exclusively on our website. We aim to knit as much homegrown “Britishness” as possible into our socks, and we are proud that every pair of socks we sell is made in the UK, using skills that go back generations.

Our range boasts faithful favourites in traditional greens, browns and golds to the opposite spectrum of the colour wheel and design intricacy with bold, colourful patterns in hues of pinks, lilacs and blues. The joy of socks is that they are the perfect way to show a little of the individual's personality.

In the Summer, you will find us on Gunmakers Row at The Game Fair, which is the one (and only!) event we exhibit at every year – it is one of our favourite weeks of the year, catching up with all of our customers and friends.

The Shooting Sock Team at The Game Fair, 2023

Based in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside, most of our team are involved with fieldsports in one way or another. Between us, we have a large team of Flat-Coat Retrievers, Springer Spaniels, Cocker Spaniels, a Clumber Spaniel and Labradors, all of which we work.

We pride ourselves on our extensive range and strive to offer a highly individual, incredibly wearable and iconic shooting sock. We send our socks to some of the largest estates in the UK and ship them worldwide. We love to see them out in the field, doing what they’re designed to do (please tag us in your socials!!).

Whatever you are after in your ideal pair of shooting socks, we hope we can offer – if we can’t, please let us know, and we shall see if we can incorporate it in the future.
