Sexy Socks - where style meets mission

Loading player...
The Sexy Socks range, proudly designed and made in Africa, consists of bamboo, cotton and active socks in countless unique, bright designs. For every pair sold, they donate a pair of school socks to a child in one of South Africa’s underprivileged schools. As of July 2024, they will have donated over 500,000 pairs! Dave Hutchison left the corporate world 10 years ago to bring the idea to life. He joined Ryan in studio to chat about the business.
